Commercial eggs usually come from hens kept in what are commonly called "battery cages." (Because they're about the size of a car battery.) The federal requirements are a floor no smaller than 77 square inches (LESS than a common sheet of copy paper) and about 8 inches high. California recently passed a series of laws that require that eggs sold in that state come from hens that have enough room to turn around and open their wings. .
