In particular, battery farming of poultry refers to this method of raising chickens. In this system, the chickens exist in small cages that are piled on top of one another, like display shelves in a grocery store. This results in thousands of chickens being housed in a given space, which could be extremely crowded.
While others state that this is an effective means of creating food for a large number of people. They say it helps hold up prices so more people can buy chicken and eggs. But there are many others who feel quite the opposite. They say this type of farming practice is not humane to the chickens and causes them to suffer. When we talk about farming, we also need to consider animal welfare.
Chickens raised in a poultry breeding cages must remain in those consecutive cages their whole lives. They are unable to stretch their wings, walk around, and move about as they would do so naturally. Envision sitting in a confined area for a long stretch of time while you can hardly move at all!
A lot of individuals are extremely concerned with the treatment of chickens within poultry battery farming. This is one of the reasons they are worried, as chickens can have limited space to live safely and comfortably. Animals, including chickens, deserve a good life. They deserve to roam, stretch and explore their environment.
An equally serious concern is that chickens are sometimes fed special pills, known as hormones, to increase their rates of weight gain. This may sound like a good thing, but can in fact be detrimental. Others even are subjected to painful procedures, such as beak clipping (cutting off part of a chicken’s beak). That can make eating and drinking difficult for them.
Studies have indicated that people who consume chicken raised under these conditions are more likely to suffer from hard-to-treat infections. These infections can be lethal and it can be difficult to find the right medicine to cure them. It is crucial to know what we eat and how it impacts our health.
At Hemei, we take a different route. “We care about their welfare and treat our chickens with respect. There’s no better way to live either than to be free, so our chickens are free to roam as much as they like, giving them a huge quality of life upgrade. We do not administer hormones or antibiotics to accelerate their growth. Instead, we allow our chickens to mature at their natural rate. It leads to healthier lives and healthier people.
