Steal their eggs? What do you belive the hens so with unfertilized eggs? Nothing. It's just waste to them, like when you menstruate.

And common people who hold hens have them free-range, and only "lock them up" at night to protect them from predators. They will live a very happy and caring life.

Stop being ignorant and naive. You're not helping your vegan cause by spewing uneducated comments like these.
