This was hard to read, the whole issue of factory farming is upsetting, and I’m even more disturbed to learn of VSD as a commonly used method to cull birds that are possibly infected. It seems like operators are afraid to think of chickens as living animals instead of production units. They can be raised and slaughtered humanely, it just has to be prioritized by the corporations who own these farms. I only buy eggs from farms where they are exclusively raised on pasture, and I seldom buy chicken meat anymore, because I don’t want to contribute a dime to the bottom line of companies that accept the suffering of millions of birds in exchange for their profits.

Thank you so much for writing about this issue! The animals we use for food deserve so much more than lives and deaths of agony so that people can have cheap eggs and meat. Please visit http://www.thehumaneleague.org if you want to help end their suffering.

Heartbreaking for the millions of birds that suffer in factory farms during their life and then during their death and people just complain about not getting enough eggs. I wish they would educate themselves and also show some compassion.
