Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 September 2025

Debate

Male Chick Culling

Contribution

Considering the advances that have been made in determining the sex of chicks before they hatch, does she agree that there is absolutely no excuse for commercial egg producers to be routinely culling animals on such a massive scale?
