On January 9, 2006, the owner of Esbenshade Farms, Pennsylvania’s third-largest egg producer, and one of the factory farm’s managers were each charged with 35 counts of criminal animal cruelty. The charges stem from an undercover video taken by an investigator affiliated with COK. While working at Esbenshade Farms from November 30 to December 9, 2005, the investigator documented appalling conditions for hundreds of thousands of hens.
