September 21, 1997 United Poultry Concerns (UPC) and the Association of Veterinarians for Animal Rights (AVAR) have undertaken a campaign to eliminate the food deprivation practice known as forced molting in hens used by the egg industry. UPC and the AVAR have approached the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) asking them to change their position statement which currently accepts forced molting, referring to it as "an acceptable management practice, when done under careful supervision and control." We are asking the AMVA to oppose force molting. Their opposition would carry great weight.
