Sunday, August 16, 2009. The Great Egg Debate - What Each Side Needs To Admit. My job provides me the luxury of being able to thoroughly research topics which interest me, including the egg debate. Some of my time is spent talking on the phone with animal advocacy groups, some of my time is spent talking with egg farmers, and as anyone who has read my research knows, a very large portion of my time is spent with consumers. Need to understand and admit. Animal Advocacy Groups -. The debate between cage an...

Tuesday, October 6, 2009. Egg Housing Transition Study. Recently ran a story about an economic study detailing the impacts of a nationwide shift from cage to cage-free egg production.

Ham and Eggonomics: Free-Range Egg Production
http://hamandeggonomics.blogspot.com/2009/08/free-range-egg-production.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2009. The day I visited the leftovers were squash. Except one: predator protection. Last summer the farmer was carrying for 250 hens, but lost 50 of the hens to hawks. When I asked him what they did with spent hens, the answer was that they never had spent hens. A predator would always kill the hen before she matured into the unproductive portion of her life. So where does Bailey buy his eggs? See video of farm below). Posted by Bailey Norwood. Ham and Eggonomics Platter. Understanding...

http://hamandeggonomics.blogspot.com/2009/06/science-behind-hen-welfare.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Science Behind Hen Welfare. Agricultural industries keep claiming that animal rights groups do not base their ideas on "science". Groups like HSUS. It is said, prefer cage-free egg production due to emotion, but the "science" says cage production is best. Not so fast, says Ham and Eggonomics. Netherlands Journal of Agricultural Science.

Tuesday, September 15, 2009. Morality, Rationality, and Emotion. I am currently reading the excellent book How We Decide. The monk's humility,. The hereo's price,. All, all alike,. Have reason on their side. Peter Singer: have your writings been objective research or a pursuit to justify your intuition? Trent Loos: is your careful scrutiny of animal industry issues sought to inform the public and yourself, or to better justify those mysterious instincts underneath that black hat?

Ham and Eggonomics: The Capital Punishment Farce
http://hamandeggonomics.blogspot.com/2009/07/capital-punishment-farce.html
Thursday, July 23, 2009. The Capital Punishment Farce. The following is a farce regarding the stances of certain of animal rights groups such as Animal Abolitionists and Vegans Against PETA. The narrative does not necessarily represent my true preferences. Because it is a farce, one should not attempt to develop arguments for and against the conjectures within the farce. The narrative is intended to promote discussion and encourage personal deliberation regarding the farm animal welfare debate). S effort...

http://hamandeggonomics.blogspot.com/2009/08/great-egg-debate-talking-to-egg-farmers.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2009. The Great Egg Debate - Talking To Egg Farmers. This afternoon I had the pleasure of talking with an energetic producer of both cage and cage-free eggs. This entry describes this conversation, and I omit his name in fear that I might misrepresent his views. This farmer and his daughter have indicated they might contribute to Ham and Eggonomics. So hopefully you will get to meet them soon! His reasons are as follows. First, mortality is significantly higher in cage-free systems.
