🐓🍕💚 Join Second-Hen’d, St. Louis’ leading “spent hen” adoption nonprofit, as they celebrate 10 years of saving hens from being killed!

At this joyous community celebration, you can:

1. 🍕 Enjoy delicious vegan pizza from Pizza Head

2. 💚 Connect with the leaders spearheading this critical, life-saving work

3. 🐔 Meet the chickens themselves and spend quality time with them

4. 🎓 Learn about chickens’ personalities, needs, and remarkable capacity for companionship

5. 🏡 Discover how Second-Hen’d helps former egg-industry hens find safe, loving forever homes

🐣 Ten Years of Second Chances

Second-Hen’d was “hatched” in 2016 after founder Erica Camp searched for a Missouri organization dedicated to rehoming former commercial egg-laying hens and discovered that no such local organization existed. Rather than accept that these hens had nowhere to go, she created Second-Hen’d.

The all-volunteer nonprofit works with commercial egg facilities to save hens who would otherwise be killed after the industry determines that their egg production is no longer profitable. Although these birds are commonly labeled “spent” at only one or two years old, they can still have many happy, meaningful years ahead of them.

Second-Hen’d carefully places the hens with committed adopters who promise to protect them, never sell or kill them for meat, and provide them with permanent, loving homes. By April 2025, the organization had already helped more than 1,000 chickens begin the next chapter of their lives.

🐔 Chickens Are Someone, Not Something

Second-Hen’d does more than rehome hens. Through public education, community programs, and personal encounters with the birds themselves, the organization helps people recognize chickens as intelligent, social, emotionally complex individuals.

Their outreach has included chicken-care classes, school and library visits, and the Chooks with Books program, which gives children—including children with autism—opportunities to read, learn, and enjoy positive sensory experiences alongside chickens.

Every hen Second-Hen’d saves is an individual: someone with her own personality, preferences, friendships, and desire to live. By finding adopters and forever homes, Second-Hen’d gives hens once treated as disposable commodities the opportunity to be valued as beloved family members.

🥳 Celebrate the Hens (and the Humans Helping Them!)

Whether you are interested in adopting hens, want to learn more about chickens, or simply love animals and vegan pizza, you belong at this Summer Flock Party!

Come celebrate a decade of compassion, meet some unforgettable feathered friends, and honor the volunteers and adopters who have helped save more than a thousand hens from being killed.

Together, we can build a community where no animal is considered “spent” and where every hen has the opportunity to live safely, happily, and freely.

🥚😱🩸 Join us as part of PETA’s latest campaign to expose the harm behind cage-free eggs!

During this friendly “egg-sposé,” we will:

1. 🎓 Educate the public about what feel-good marketing terms like “cage-free” actually mean

2. 🤒 Expose the suffering caused by the egg industry, no matter the label

3. 💚 Distribute Just Egg to encourage compassionate, plant-based living

Cage-free eggs are often promoted as a major victory for animals, but the reality is far more complicated.

Here are five reasons advocates are taking a closer look:

🩹 Cage-Free Does Not Mean Cruelty-Free

Hens in cage-free facilities may still endure severe overcrowding, painful bone fractures, aggression, respiratory illness, infectious disease, and chronic stress.

🐣 More Hens May Be Harmed

Cage-free hens often produce fewer marketable eggs. Maintaining the same level of egg production may therefore require exploiting more birds, potentially increasing total suffering.

🌎 The Environmental Impact May Be Greater

Cage-free systems can require more feed, resources, and hens per egg produced, resulting in higher greenhouse-gas emissions than conventional caged production.

🏭 Humane Labels Can Hide Industrial Conditions

“Cage-free” may conjure images of hens roaming freely outdoors, but many remain confined inside crowded industrial buildings. The label can reassure consumers without accurately showing how the birds actually live.

🌱 We Need More Transformative Solutions

Focusing on cage-free conversions may divert attention from reducing egg consumption, promoting vegan alternatives, and confronting the broader system that treats animals as production units.

⚖️ The Final Verdict

Cage-free may sound like progress, but meaningful change requires asking whether these campaigns truly reduce suffering or simply place a more compassionate label on the same exploitative industry.

Together, we will not merely challenge the animal-abuse industry; we will help dismantle it.

Please join us for this critical outreach effort as we challenge humane-washing, undermine support for animal cruelty, and show the public that animals deserve freedom, not better labels.

🐔📢✊ Join local PETA supporters and Project Animal Freedom as we peacefully protest Raising Cane’s and speak up for chickens!

Chickens are some of the most abused animals on the planet. In the United States alone, approximately 9 billion chickens are killed for their flesh every year, and the vast majority spend their entire lives in confinement—from the moment they hatch until the day they are slaughtered.

By attending this protest, you will:

1. 📣 advocate for chickens trapped in the fast-food industry

2. 💔 raise awareness about the horrific suffering these animals endure

3. 🌱 encourage the public to choose compassion by going vegan

All animals deserve to live safe, happy, and free from violence. Yet chickens are treated like products instead of individuals, suffering terribly before their bodies end up in fast-food bags.

Please join us as we come together for chickens and call for a kinder world!

❗ IMPORTANT DETAILS:

Please dress sharply in a PETA T-shirt, nice pants, and close-toed shoes. PETA will provide a shirt if you do not already have one. This dress code is required so the focus stays where it belongs: on the animals.

All materials, including posters, will be provided.

Please refrain from bringing dogs, as there may not be a comfortable place for them to lie down during the protest.

For questions, contact MariaL@peta.org.

What are you waiting for? Get active for chickens today!

🗽🇺🇸🦅 Join us as we demand freedom for all animals on the 4th of July!

Why? Freedom is an American ideal, and all animals deserve to live safe, happy, and free. Yet billions of animals live some of the most unfree lives imaginable in:

• 🏭 factory farms

• 🔪 slaughterhouses

• 🐭 and other animal-abusing facilities

By marching with us on Animal Freedom Day, you will:

1. 🐵 champion the rights of nonhuman animals

2. 😿 raise awareness about their plight

3. 🗽 and build the movement for animal freedom

All people are born with certain inalienable rights, including life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is our duty to ensure that these rights are extended to all animals, because justice for all means justice for animals.

Their freedom is our freedom. Now let’s fight for it!

🏳️‍🌈🌱🐷 Join us for our fourth annual Vegan Pride Parade as part of the Grand Pride Parade at St. Louis PrideFest!

By marching with us, you will:

1. ✊ champion animal rights as a vital social justice issue

2. 🌱 represent the queer vegan community in St. Louis

3. 🌈 showcase the vibrancy and diversity of the vegan movement

Please join us if you are:

• 🏳️‍🌈 LGBTQIA+

• 🥕 vegan

• 🤝 an ally

This year, we are marching with a bold pro-vegan, pro-queer, anti-oppression message rooted in total liberation: queer liberation, animal liberation, and eco-liberation.

We believe animal rights belongs at Pride because Pride has always been about expanding compassion, challenging oppression, and building a world where everyone can live safe, happy, and free — regardless of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, race, nationality, ability, or species.

Factory farms and slaughterhouses hurt animals, workers, communities, and the planet. By marching together, we can show St. Louis that veganism is a powerful path toward a more just and compassionate world — for animals, humans, and the planet alike.

RSVP here for more details and to help us generate an even bigger impact this year!
