California Chickens Get a Break and Mama gnome Flies the Coop!

Mama gnome jumped up and down and practically flew inside her kitchen when she read this post by Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of the Humane Society of the United States, on Huffington Post.

He reports:

"Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed A.B. 1437, a bill backed by The Humane Society of the United States that requires that starting in 2015 all shell (whole) eggs sold in California must come from hens who were able to stand up, lie down, turn around, and fully extend their limbs without touching one another or the sides of an enclosure. In other words: California will become a cage-free state."

Mama gnome gives credit where credit is due and thanks to all the humans who've voted and worked on getting this through.

Now how about a cage free life and Go Green!
