    I worked for a well known chain of intensive chicken factory farms. 2 men cared for 500,000 chickens. The chickens were sold as organic free range, but they were not organic or free range. I had to sign a non-disclosure contract for the job and was prohibited from speaking to the press. I detested the job, not because of smells, flies. poor pay or dead chickens. It was because the chickens had more personality than the supervisors.

      Established "Pecking Order" : the basic pattern of social organization within a flock of poultry in which each bird pecks another lower in the scale without fear of retaliation and submits to pecking by one of higher rank broadly : a dominance hierarchy in a group of social animals. --- This is why they have no feathers. Surrounded constantly by dozens of other random hens doing what hens do fighting to be alpha. The free range have fewer hens more room and longer time alive to have less frequent dominance trials thus more developed feathers.

    Conversely back then Lamb was fairly cheap and something you could eat once or twice a week, these days (here in Australia anyway) 1kg of Lamb Chops is $25-35... Funny how the world changes.

They learn fast and peck at us when they want something we are eating especially during dinner, we let them roam free at our house most of the time so they get really fond about what we do daily. We have a rice dispenser where you push buttons to dispense rice out and our pet rooster would attempt to press buttons as well and pull out the container to get raw rice. Its very smart of him and its very questionable since most people assume chickens are very unintelligent and are biologically born to have smaller brains. They can and have character the same as we have trained our cats and our dogs, but often people go with dogs and cats since their adorable and reliable, not to mention a very amazing attraction to media. Its heartbreaking that I myself love eating chicken and that the reason why these companies continue to thrive is because of consumers like us that support their business. And knowing that I have pet chickens at home is literally like eating another one of them unintentionally.

The prices are drastically different. The IR chickens are by far the cheapest and Organic costs the most. Both of the company’s are making the same profit. The extra cost and savings are handed down to the consumer. Again the video explains it all.

It about 4-7 inch some the same size with chinese chickens but less flamboyant feather. It lives in mountains and forest. Pure organic and it taste so savory even when cooked w/out seasonings. They ran super fast and aggressive, we called them here highflyer bcoz they can jump up to 20-30ft while flapping their wings and kicking to attack.

      Gonna be honest, I don't give a shit about poultry rights. I just get USDA organic, because there isn't crap tons of toxic shit in the feed, such as arsenic, dioxins, PCBs, etc.
      I think we're going to see a massive rise in dementia and cancer rates in the future. We've pretty much ruined this planet. So, it's not poultry rights I care about. It's surviving the idiocy of the last 100 years, which we now are footing the bill for.

    If an intensively reared chicken is sold in supermarkets for an average of £2 per kilo then how much are farmers actually selling them?? It must be really cheap and the margins must be small. I guess its the volumes that are worth the business in poultry farming.

      @@aakashsubedi5662 funny you mentioned price, I was thinking the same. I'm from Peru, and here the kilo its sold at exactly the same price (exchange to local currency about 6 or 7 soles per K) volume is the key in this business, and apparently if your costs are higher at some point it will get cheaper to just import the chicken meat than produce locally.

      Farmers get about 80 cents per pound with retail sales at $1.90 per pound on average (US prices...should be a similar ratio in the UK).

      Yeah lab meats need more research incentives. Environment will struggle to recover says the latest ipcc report. Basically also need governmental acknowledgement to harm of animal agri so that veganic farming can be part of sustainable development. In developing nations meat consumsion huge except the poor that are plant based. All coz of taste and misinformation
