The following is a clip from “How It’s Made,” a Canadian TV show that frequently airs on the Discovery channel. This clip describes how a chick hatchery works, and is frankly a bit disturbing.
Now, don’t get me wrong – I’ve been around chickens and they can be quite disgusting. And I understand that we use them for food, sustinence, etc. But something about this whole process just seems so unnatural and wrong that it makes part of me never want to eat processed chicken or eggs again.
oh, tim. i think i just became a vegetarian again.
have you ever seen the meatrix videos? youtube it.
heyyy ran across your blog via sarah’s.
this is thoroughly disturbing… particularly throwing the chicks down chutes and shooting them into boxes…
