DID YOU KNOW THAT THE EGGS YOU CONSUME COULD BE LINKED TO CRUELTY?
Behind the hotel buffets are millions of hens crammed into tiny battery cages (smaller than an A4 sheet of paper), unable to move freely or see sunlight, forced to produce the eggs that make our favourite foods.
Several companies have publicly pledged to transition to 100% cage-free eggs by 2025. But in Southeast Asia, especially Thailand, progress has stalled and transparency is missing. The pledges are there. The action is not.
While these companies have been informed about the cruelty of battery cages and have pledged to take action, most have failed to provide updates.
When promises fail, heroes act - that's you.
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, a global hotel company with a portfolio of well-known brands such as Wyndham, Ramada, and Days Inn, has committed to sourcing 100% cage-free eggs across its global operations by 2025.
​
According to the company’s 2024 Annual Report (pages 13 and 29), as of 2023, approximately 70% of Wyndham’s global hotels have access to cage-free egg sourcing options. This indicates that Wyndham is partially on track with its cage-free commitment, demonstrating measurable but incomplete progress toward its global goal.
​
​It is now 2026, and there has been no updates yet.
A day in the life of millions of laying hens
Lack of space
Up to 12 hens can be crammed together into one small cage. This usually means each one of them has a space smaller than an A4 sheet of paper to spend their whole lives in.
Frustration
They cannot express their natural behaviors, such as spreading their wings, walking freely, or nesting.
​
This deprivation leads them to feel constantly frustrated.
Pain
They tend to have bone diseases such as osteoporosis, making them prone to fractures and deformations. They stand on the cage metal grid, which hurts their feet.
Death
Sometimes, dead hens are left to rot for days, forcing the surviving hens to live next to the decaying bodies of their peers. Sanitary conditions are also deplorable. Hens are often kept in tiny cages with their droppings accumulating beneath them.
Public health
The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has concluded that cage systems have a higher prevalence of Salmonella compared to cage-free systems.
Beak trimming
Trimming chicken beaks is a common practice in the egg industry. The consequences in some chickens is that it generates neuromas with chronic pain throughout their lives.
