Consumers urged to eat a wider range of egg sizes 28 April 2021 | A new collaboration is urging the public to buy a wider range of egg sizes Consumers are being urged to buy a variety of egg sizes rather than always opting for large, as this in turn benefits the welfare of the hens laying them. The British Hen Welfare Trust (BHWT) and British Free Range Egg Producers Association (BFREPA) have come together to raise awareness of the issue. The BHWT explained that consumers had little or no idea that eating a range of egg sizes benefited hen welfare. It added that even making a small change to shopping habits and recipes would make a big impact.
