2 Q. They do bleed?
3 A. A little bit.
4
5 Q. The nail?
6 A. The nail?
7
8 Q. A nail?
9 A. Oh, no, the nail, underneath the nail, you have to
10 separate that, that is why it bleeds.
11
12 Q. That is the finger?
13 A. Yes.
14
15 Q. I am talking about when you cut your nail, it does not
16 bleed, does it?
17 A. No.
18
19 Q. Whereas the chicken's beak can?
20 A. The beak itself, no.
21
22 Q. You said yesterday that you have seen it bleeding
23 sometimes?
24 A. Yes, but when you just like when you cut the nail,
25 I said if it is done improperly, you can trim more than the
26 beak.
27
28 Q. When you spoke to Tysons last night, did you check up about
29 the debeaking of battery chickens?
30 A. I have never seen the debeaking, no, I did not check
31 about that.
32
33 Q. Did you not talk about that at all?
34 A. No.
35
36 Q. If you could turn to this article?

38 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Where am I going to put these at the end of
39 the day?
40
41 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I suggest maybe the only appropriate
42 place for it is behind Miss Druce' statement.
43
44 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Would you like me to put them there?
45
46 MS. STEEL: Yes.
47
48 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I will do that, but I think we had better
49 give them some kind of marking. I will put an "A" in the
50 top right-hand corner.
51
52 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, it is 1B No. 3 in section B, blue. If
53 Ms. Steel is moving to one of these other documents, there
54 are two things: Unless I am corrected, neither of these
55 appears to have to be a scientific paper in any way. They
56 both appear to be taken from popular magazines, if I may
57 call it that, or specialist animal welfare magazines,
58 perhaps. I am not at all sure that they can be put into
59 evidence in cross-examination.
