I find this so odd. I mean, yes, great, thank you for fighting for the #chickens, and for supposedly giving them better lives. But in the end you are still killing them and eating them. Why not go one step further?

Some quotes from the article:

"But despite years of campaigning, chicken farming remains mostly crowded, confining and – above all – cruel. The more things change, the more they stay the same."

"In 2008, more than 95% of chickens were factory farmed; now that figure is close to 90%."

"These animals are living lives of squalor and horror on a scale that most people choose never to think about, because if they did they would barely believe it possible."

Despite the great intentions:

1. No matter if the chicken was raised in a factory farm which the author is trying to fight against, or in that magical happy red barn with the yellow sun, blue river, green grass, and prancing teletubbies singing on the side, they are still getting sent to a slaughterhouse to be killed and then eaten.

2. The age a chicken gets killed is years before their natural life span. The average seems to be 3-7, with the world record being 16. Egg laying chickens live for as long as they make eggs (1-2 years), while chickens for their meat (or flesh 🤯), a couple of months, depending on the speed of their growth.

3. No amount of herbs and spices will hide these facts. 🌱
