Doing something even if you can't do everything is not illogical.
Telling someone that they should do something even if you yourself can't do everything isn't illogical or hypocritical.
True, the conditions of cows vary a lot.
Anyway, it's worth noting that at least most people I know are vegetarians primarily for ecological, not ethical reasons. Chickens and eggs have a low carbon footprint for animal protein.

Yes it is hypocritical to tell someone else to do something that you are unwilling to do. The classic example of hypocrisy is Do as I say and not as I do.
If the logic to do or not do one thing is the same as the logic to do or not do another thing then to do one and not the other is logically inconsistent.
Agreed, people are vegan / vegetarian for many reasons, note in my original statement I said ethical as opposed to ecological. Its interesting that you find the ecological vegetarians as the majority. I would say in Canada the ethical treatment vegetarians would outweigh the ecological ones. Or at least when it comes to facebook vegetarians.
