11 amazing Kale Chip Recipes!!

The chicken catchers walk through the sheds grabbing them by one leg and carrying them in bunches (up to five chickens in each hand.)
The chickens are then bundled into crates and stacked onto a truck for the journey to the slaughterhouse.
One third will suffer broken bones by the time they are slaughtered at 39 - 45 days old.
They have spent their whole lives in dark sheds, living in their own waste and breathing in air polluted with ammonia, dust, bacteria and fungal spores.
Selectively bred to grow fast they have already suffered leg deformities, respiratory and skin problems. 
At the turn of the century it took a broiler 96 days to grow to slaughter weight (about two kilograms), today it takes around 37 days to reach the same weight. 
Thousands of birds are so sick they can’t even live that long, and many can’t walk to the feeders and die of starvation and thirst. 
When the birds are slaughtered they still have the cheep and baby blue eyes of a chick.

US Poultry Inspector Rodney Leonard…. “I don’t eat chicken anymore. I won’t eat it. I won’t allow it in my 
house.”
