Where eggs come from: hens, shell colours, sizes and what is inside, sentence 18

The code stamped on a British egg starts with how the hen lived: 0 organic, 1 free range, 2 barn, 3 cage; then letters for the country and a number for the farm, and a red lion stamp means the hens were vaccinated against Salmonella, a germ that gives people a bad tummy upset.

Who acts: code, hen, red lion stamp, germ · What happens: stamp, start, live, mean, vaccinate, give · To what, where: code, British egg, letters, 0, hens, bad tummy · Speech: someone speaks here
