When we visit the store to purchase eggs, we may not consider how these eggs made it to the shelves. Most of the eggs we buy are laid in s. Unfortunately, the chickens don’t fare well on these farms. The chickens are treated terribly. This article will inform the readers about the issues that caged chickens encounter every day. We will also learn how this type of farming affects their lives, and the lives surrounding them.
Chickens, however, are deprived of one of their favorite activities while they are being fed and watered. For instance, chickens love to scratch around on the ground searching for food and behaving inquisitively. But they aren’t given the chance to do any of these things in caged farms. There’s no comfy or protected nook for them to deposit their eggs in. Instead, they must perch to lay their eggs on a hard, slanting wire floor that can be painful to their feet. This can lead to pain and even serious injuries.
Caged chicken farms are typically quite large and flocked with many chickens stacked up in one location. Chickens are social creatures by nature, they enjoy being together with their friends and roaming freely. But in these farms, they tend to do aggressive things such as fighting among themselves due to highly stress and discomfort. To prevent these battles from occurring, farmers trim the ends of the chickens’ beaks. This painful process can injure the chickens and lead to them experiencing problems for a long time, even for the rest of their lives.
Most alarming, however, is that the chickens on these caged farms have a lot of health issues. They live in close quarters with other birds, so diseases can spread swiftly between them. If they aren’t able to move as much, they tend to develop weak bones and muscles, which makes it increasingly difficult for them to stand or walk properly. Meanwhile the squalid, overcrowded living quarters can cause respiratory problems and other diseases that may be severe or deadly.
Caged chicken farms not only harm the chickens who live there, they can create long-lasting damages to animal welfare as a whole. Long-term confinement of animals in such a limited space can cause them great distress and depression. It is important to mention that even if these chickens end up with a good life, they may have some difficulty adapting and living in a way that many of us might assume as natural.
Moreover, the dirty living conditions and high rate of the illnesses can spread dangerous diseases. Not only do these diseases impact the chickens, but they can also be harmful to other wildlife in the vicinity. The eggs produced by these caged chicken farms may sell for less in stores, but they carry a heavy price tag that negatively impacts both the animals and the people who consume them.
As consumers, we can be part of the solution. We can eat free-range chicken eggs. These chickens are free to roam around, and have a higher quality of life.
