Veganism isn’t a religion, it’s a label people use to self identity as not eating anything from animals.
Every person decides for themselves what counts. I’m sure there are people who identify as vegan that are ok with backyard chicken eggs, and there are ones that don’t.
There is a whole industry around providing the chickens that people purchase for their backyards, and that industry has to sort the male chickens from the female, and then destroy the males. You can’t really participate in purchasing chickens without being involved in that aspect, which most vegans would object to, even if the chickens that live with them would be treated humanely.
There’s also some vegans who are fine with honey, and some that aren’t.
Would it be exploitation to give food, shelter, love, companionship etc in exchange for the eggs?
