Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 to place a measure on the California ballot to prevent the continuation of inhumane gestation crates, battery cages and similar pins to confine pregnant sow pigs,egg laying hen chickens, and baby calves of cows. This is to make sure that these animals have under protection of law enough room to actually stand,turn around and stretch. FYI Pigs during pregnancy are confined in metal cages called gestation crates and are unable even to turn around for months on end. Young calves are also kept purposely confined in veal crates so small they are barely able to move for nearly their entire lives. And egg-laying hens are often kept in tiny battery cages, unable even to spread their wings. I am collecting signatures and if you or anyone you know is interested in signing and are legal citizen of California and registered to vote then please let me know. Any big social events coming up where we can all get together?
