I saw a documentary years ago. The chickens were kept in a 1 ft x 1 ft cages for their entire lives. Their beaks were clipped to keep them from pecking their neighbors to death. They couldn't stand up because of no exercise and rapid growth. I remember thinking "why can't they just roam around in a decent barn like cows do in the fields?" I was kind of happy to see they're doing that with THESE chickens. This setup may not be perfect, but it's better than what I saw. There's always room for more kindness to animals, and each other.
I always thought of chicken farming as how my neighbors did it, pens in their yards with chickens roaming about in the grass. They kept them for eggs, let them live a long life, and only slaughtered them when they grew old. I was caught up in the lie of what farming was. I didn't want to think about factory farming, but I'm not surprised this industry is all about profit. It breaks my heart that the one chicken she held had never been petted before, never seen sunlight, and never spread its wings because of being cramped. That was it's one moment of happiness in its life before it was sent to be slaughtered. Every chicken in there was an individual animal, each with their own personalities and quirks. None of them lived a happy life.
The ignorance regarding cattle and chicken abuse in the U.S. is extreme. The average person goes to fast food chains and grocery stores happily supporting animal torture. The average American buys products that have been tested on animals who suffer torture. This is cause and effect is the primary reason Americans feel toxic but do not understand the cause. Look around at how unhealthy the people are in our country. You see if we neglect disabled kids and animals, if we support wars, if we go along with horrendous suffering then it boomerangs into our world. Without compassion for "everything" our senses are dulled which results in vast depression/anxiety resulting in hate and lack of care. This vicious cycle can be repaired with compassion, love and kindness. Don't allow the corporate machine to control your world be an honest genuine person then you will discover how to be happy. Even the comments in this thread are so ignorant it gnerates enormous concern regarding how shallow and incapable of depth people have become. You have to change your diet and nourish your mind in order to learn and communicate what is happening in the world. Lead by example change course and teach others about these atrocities.

This is why I only eat meat from two small local farms whose owner is a friend or meat hunted for ecological population control (i.e. deer or Eurasian boar).
Yes! There is a local farm in my area that raises cattle and chicken. One - the animals are not held captive. They get to be animals. Two - grass fed without antibiotics (which means no methane - they emit methane from antibiotics, actually). Three - they don't get frozen or take a tour of the US before ending up on my grocery shelf. They're vacuum sealed and i get them same day only 30 mins away. The farm also processes the whole animal - bones for soup or bone meal, leather goods, items from the horn, feet for the gelatin. Not just dumping the offal and carcass that could have so many more uses.
What if there was an alien species that came to earth and only ate humans that were slaughtered in a humane way. In other words there is no such thing as humane slaughter. Stop eating meat. You're body isn't designed for it anyway.
What is worse is watching people who have no degree in Child minding or teaching or psychology rearing children as if they were born parents from the womb.. What a pathetic world we live in that anyone can become a parent and destroy the hopes of so many children just by telling them they cant eat meat....
People keep saying these (meat animals) are all God’s creatures as if they are supposed to run freely all over creation, revered and celebrated romantically. Yet the Bible explicitly states these animals are for every live being’s consumption. That is their purpose, just as we have a purpose (supposedly). We cry about slaughtering cattle and chickens but does anyone deny that wild predator beasts savagely and cruelty take down and torture other animals? I have seen on You Tube here disgusting scavengers, dozens of hyenas and lions eating the rear ends of LIVE wildebeests and antelopes, zebras and what ever moves. The poor paralyzed thing sits helpless. Does anyone suggest these wild beasts eat grass and leaves only?

An enlightened society has no need to kill or torture others because it realizes that the “other” is just an illusion.. there is only “us” who know we are “I” and that “i” even a rock has.. but even more so animals have
We need to eat both meat and vegetables to maintain a healthy body... It's not like you can just exclude one without a underlying condition, and not feel the effects.
The type of chickens they are raising here are not meant to live beyond about 12 weeks. If you took them to a sanctuary and gave them a good life they would still die quickly due to heart respiratory problems and stress fractures. These birds die crippled because they are bred to killed at 3 months or less....thier bones are literally too weak to support thier body weight
That's inaccurate because population doesn't always corelate with the amount of resources consumed. Americans and Europeans consume way more meat than Indians for example.

When presenting religious human beings with this type of treatment.......the response from those individuals,"GOD allows that type of suffering" ?????? "we enjoy this type of suffering, it is good for our children." All that pain & suffering injected into the consumer???
I grew up working a factory farm, and honestly, if you want to end the cruelty, maybe send a photography crew out to document the waste caused by companies like Walmart and target. If they wouldn’t waste as much we wouldn’t need to produce in such large quantities. Also, we as farmers work as much or more hours than lawyers (80-90 hrs non-winter) yet make very little. Want things to change? Look at the demand not the supply
The first thing to do if you want to end the cruelty and want things to change is of course to go vegan. Then you yourself won't contribute to the breeding, exploitation and killing of these beings. Then, to make an even greater impact, become an animal rights activist and talk to others about the most neglected members in our society.

The Bible actually says in the book of genesis that humans are allowed to kill animals for food. I’m against animal cruelty and I do think it’s wrong how animals are treated in meat industries but I think it’s fine for people to hunt animals for food. In the wild deer and other animals get killed all the time by lions and wolves. I think that killing animals for food should be done humanely of course, like a quick and painless death. I mean it’s a circle of life after all.

In Genesis having dominion over all of the animals means to take care of them, to love them, as you love people, even loving your wife.

i agree, animals are very valuable, they should all be treated just like any other pets like dogs. eating animals even costs more than just eating vegtables because you have to feen animals first for a long time, then kill them because their tasty...... watching this video made me realise that eating meat is not good for the fate of animals
It seems odd to me that there wasn't a clear statement suggesting people stop eating chicken. I love the exposure in htis, but the message to "never cause harm, never look away" is too vague for most people. The best thing consumers can do is stop buying dead animals and animal secretions. It's the only way to directly reduce suffering and death.
Hey guys ! Hey Farmers , I just want to let you know that we’re not trying to stop you from what you’re doing we just want you to choose a new path of raising the chickens maybe just a little more humane, some windows, a little outdoor space, that’s all we ask is a change so that the chickens may have a happier life before they die. Please let’s do this together , peace and love!!
(Grew up working this kind of farm, family owned) unfortunately it’s not that simple. We own the land and buildings but a corporation makes us raise them that way. We don’t have the authority to change things. People who work or own these kind of farms don’t have the agency to alter its operation
Ofcource some ways of animal farming is better but even if someone locked me in Disney world and killed me on my 18th birthday I still wouldn’t be ok with that !!
TOTALLY INSANE, we need to stad up to these companies and sayyyyy somthinng doo somthing, we need a animals rights movement like greta thundenberg who is with me!!(im sooo serious send me your email lets start this and make NEWS HEADLINES )
They don't avoid her at first because they think she means harm. They shy away from people because it's a large animal they never interact with. They don't know they will be harmed.

Bry-Fi that’s called a strawman, sure there’s definitely situations where people can’t have a vegan diet, but what’s stopping those who can? Also the cheapest foods are things like pasta, rice, potatoes, bananas, oats, grains, legumes, bread etc all vegan. But you’re correct in that some people don’t have that access. But it would become more accessible to those people if those who could shifted to a plant based diet and a lot of systematic change occurred. I went vegan at 22 on minimum wage but in a very well off country with access to loads of stores and I personally saved money eating more whole plant foods.
Poor baby's . I hate humans who think their taste buds are more important then a living being. I really hope they will be feel the same pain and horror that the animals they consume have to go trough.
2021 Im still eating chicken. God made animals so we can eat Them and if we treat them like their human that's kinda wrong because they are not human, We are and no matter how you raise the animal it all ends the same on a plate . these videos should not be the only reason why people go vegan.
Just eat from non factory farms. You are supporting torture. God didn’t make these animals, they evolved just like us. They can feel pain. They have a brain.
They are animals with brains and lives who can feel suffering. You can kill them, but not treat them as objects. Buy some meat where the animals are treated humanely before tey die.
Meat is associated with global warming, higher rate of cancer and cardiovascular diseases, and poor economics in terms of food. With the resources that go to making non-vegetarian food, you can feed ten times more people with vegetarian food. Even more.
It is shocking shocking for this brutal life that the animals must endure for the sake to provide meat for our humans. We must boicot such behaviour by not eating any meat anymore. God gave this earth for us to rein and rule over it not destroy and mistreat. We must stop this Jos

You don't have to stop eating meat. You have to stop enabling massive industry that doesn't care. Local animal farmers with small abattoirs are constantly raided and shut down so they cannot compete with mega farmers and the big slaughterhouses. A small abattoir will kill quickly and humanely without missing and letting the animal linger in agony. There are more than enough films to show you the horrors of the major slaughterhouses.
Male chickens are thrown into a blender shortly after birth because they're useless to the egg industry. Baby cows are separated from their mothers so they can't drink their milk. Please consider going vegan.

These animals are not pets. They are bred for consumption by humans who eat chicken. Whether they are bred on a large farm or a small one their lives are short-lived. They are bred to be killed for human consumption. This video plays on your emotions. Remember not everyone is a vegetarian and a lot of people eat meat. This is a form of food bullying to advance the video maker's opinion. Basically, her platform of implied power. Would it be better to leave these chickens outside to be killed by foxes or opossums? Furthermore, would it be less cruel to give them a name and raise them as if they are your pet? Or better yet, free-range these chickens and let the environment kill them. So, what you are not mentioning is that factory farming is keeping the price of chicken meat affordable for low-income families that cannot afford Free-Range or Organic types of meat. Let's face it there are people starving all over the world. When you are watching this video think of someone who can not afford to even eat. Solve that problem first, then tackle big farming practices.
By the way, I am an animal lover, if I would have been at that farm filming a dying chicken. I would have picked the chicken up and taken it to the vet to try to save its life. Just food for thought.

*If low income families cannot afford the free range or organic types of meat, they should quit the meat all together then, why they are so obsessed with eating meat in the first place? "If you don't afford, don't eat". Simple. We can live a good and healthy life on the Vegetarian or Diet too, which is more affordable.*
@@Logical_Human_ You expect people to live in perfect conditions. Some people don't live in an area with fresh and arable land. Furthermore, these factories supply jobs that help human lives.

To be honest I don’t really care. I don’t really care if animals are farmed. If there my pet I would love them, but if it was served to me on a plate, I would eat it.
That's extremely hypocritical. Your pet is no different than these animals here. If you're okay with one being abused, tortured, and locked away to sit in their own sick for the rest of their lives, you're okay with the same happening to your pet. Your an animal abuser if you support factory farming, plain and simple.

If it wasn't for factory farming the vast majority of people in this country couldn't afford to eat. And when I'm talking about factory farming I am also including those who raise fruit and vegetables. Anyone who wants proof of this just has to attend a farmer's market in the summer. The chicken free range on small farms run seven to ten dollars a pound raw. You can buy an entire factory farmed bird already cooked for five to six dollars in Jewel, Costco, or any other grocery store. Grass fed beef from a small ranch will run you twelve dollars a pound for ground beef and twenty eight dollars a pound for a cheap cut of steak. Tomatoes from a local farmer will run you five dollars a pound while the grocery store will sell them to you in season for a dollar to a dollar and a half a pound. Eggs from a local farmer will run you eight to twelve dollars a dozen while at the grocery store it will run you ninety cents to a dollar and a quarter a dozen. And if you think the animals on factory farms are treated badly than you've got a real surprise on how migrant farm workers are treated that pick you fruits and vegetable. They are paid slave wages and live in rat infested hovals. You've got entire families working the fields including kids a young as six years old working twelve hour days.
Bruh that’s cap. You forget that for every pound of animal products it took about 16 pounds of plant foods to make that. In the US alone 38 BILLION tax dollars are wasted on this wasteful industry that pollutes our waters, burns our trees and exploits humans. That tax money could be used to lower the cost of plant foods. What you just said is all straight cap.
Workers at factory farms and slaughter houses suffer from PTSD and the crime rates of communities surrounding these places are higher than the average with domestic abuse, child abuse and drug addiction.
Was it only me who saw this farm and thought it looked alright? good ventelation, food ,water , quite open with a little to many birds but i would say this is fine. if it was nature half of those birds would have died in the first weeks so stop crying about a a couple dead and those birds don'r know the different between the sun and a lamp. they don't need to freeze to death in the winter or in the rain and just so you know i own free range chickens but would say that is fine for a farm.

humans need to eat, we are at the top of the food chain, if everyone in the world went vegan we wouldnt be able to sustain ourselves, people need to eat meat, its just how it is. sure it may be cruel the way we attain our meat at times but it is what it is.
It really isn't. Your argument doesn't make a lick of sense. We can easily put laws in place to stop this treatment, but abusers like you don't want it. If I did the same thing to a dog, then there would be outcry.

The factory farm workers clean it up for inspection and because it looks mildly hygienic, a few photographers can come in. Also, factory farmers aren't paid much and many of them are in debt; they don't even LIKE their job ( ; - ; )
This is a typical chick raising farm. A good percentage of chicks don't get to fully grow, regardless of how much time you put into each individual chicken. These are not the entirety of the living conditions and it makes me laugh and a little angered at how misleading videos are on this matter
Factory-farmed chickens pose a significant threat to human health, primarily due to the high probability of zoonotic diseases escaping and causing a devastating pandemic. The conditions in which these chickens are raised-cramped, unsanitary, and stressful-create an ideal breeding ground for pathogens to develop and spread. This risk is compounded by the widespread use of antibiotics in these settings, which promotes the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The cramped environments of factory farms facilitate the rapid transmission of diseases among the chickens. Pathogens such as avian influenza (bird flu) and salmonella thrive in these conditions. When these diseases make the jump from animals to humans, they can cause severe illness and have the potential to spread rapidly within human populations. The H5N1 strain of avian influenza, for example, has been known to infect humans, leading to severe respiratory illness and high mortality rates. The close quarters in which factory-farmed chickens are kept increase the likelihood of such viruses mutating and acquiring the ability to transmit more easily between humans. Moreover, the extensive use of antibiotics in factory farming contributes to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. These bacteria can spread to humans through direct contact with animals, consumption of contaminated meat, or through the environment, such as water supplies contaminated with waste from the farms. When these antibiotic-resistant bacteria infect humans, they are much harder to treat, leading to higher morbidity and mortality rates. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) have repeatedly warned about the dangers of antibiotic resistance, noting that it poses one of the biggest threats to global health. The environmental impact of factory farming also plays a role in the spread of zoonotic diseases. The massive amounts of waste produced by these farms can contaminate soil and water sources, spreading pathogens far beyond the confines of the farm. This environmental contamination can affect nearby human populations, increasing the risk of disease outbreaks. Additionally, the pollution caused by factory farms can lead to respiratory problems and other health issues in humans, further weakening their ability to fight off infections. Ethical and welfare concerns in factory farming, while primarily focused on animal suffering, also intersect with human health risks. The stress and poor health conditions experienced by the chickens can lead to the emergence of more virulent strains of diseases, which can then spread to humans. This creates a cycle of poor animal welfare leading to greater human health risks. Given these factors, the high probability of zoonotic diseases escaping from factory farms and causing a pandemic is a significant concern. The COVID-19 pandemic, believed to have originated from a zoonotic source, has shown the devastating impact such diseases can have on global health, economies, and societies. The potential for factory-farmed chickens to be the source of the next pandemic cannot be ignored. Addressing this threat requires a multi-faceted approach, including improved farming practices, stricter regulations on antibiotic use, enhanced surveillance for zoonotic diseases, and greater emphasis on animal welfare. By taking these steps, we can reduce the risk of zoonotic diseases escaping from factory farms and protect public health from the threat of future pandemics.
If you feel so sorry for the chicken then buy it from the farm and take it to the vet. The farm will probably give it to you since it'll just be going into the dead pile anyway.

Thank you for this beautiful video, I promise to not look away
If that lady we’re to pass out alone in there those chickens would eat her alive. They would peck her down to the bones. People love to humanize animals.
Same with pigs,they will eat you if they get the chance.

Birds are such curious and loving animals😢
This is why I only eat meat from two small local farms whose owner is a friend or meat hunted for ecological population control (i.e. deer or Eurasian boar).
Good. Thank you for not supporting these torture camps.
Αnd I only wat fish I catch. When I catch them I immediately stab them in the face so they have a quick and non suffering deth
Yes! There is a local farm in my area that raises cattle and chicken. One - the animals are not held captive. They get to be animals. Two - grass fed without antibiotics (which means no methane - they emit methane from antibiotics, actually). Three - they don't get frozen or take a tour of the US before ending up on my grocery shelf. They're vacuum sealed and i get them same day only 30 mins away. The farm also processes the whole animal - bones for soup or bone meal, leather goods, items from the horn, feet for the gelatin. Not just dumping the offal and carcass that could have so many more uses.
Y e s
What if there was an alien species that came to earth and only ate humans that were slaughtered in a humane way.
In other words there is no such thing as humane slaughter.
Stop eating meat. You're body isn't designed for it anyway.
NowThis is BRAVE for keeping their comments on
I'm glad this was made, I wished more animals didn't have to live like this, its sad.
People are selfish. People ar cruel. People are hypocritical. They adore their pets, but pay people to torture and slaughter other animals.
Cuz they need to eat lol
What is worse is watching people who have no degree in Child minding or teaching or psychology rearing children as if they were born parents from the womb.. What a pathetic world we live in that anyone can become a parent and destroy the hopes of so many children just by telling them they cant eat meat....
People keep saying these (meat animals) are all God’s creatures as if they are supposed to run freely all over creation, revered and celebrated romantically. Yet the Bible explicitly states these animals are for every live being’s consumption. That is their purpose, just as we have a purpose (supposedly). We cry about slaughtering cattle and chickens but does anyone deny that wild predator beasts savagely and cruelty take down and torture other animals? I have seen on You Tube here disgusting scavengers, dozens of hyenas and lions eating the rear ends of LIVE wildebeests and antelopes, zebras and what ever moves. The poor paralyzed thing sits helpless. Does anyone suggest these wild beasts eat grass and leaves only?
10out of million chicks will die
You are focusing on bad quality birds
You sound like my dad before he got sick. Thankfully he's healthy now and hasn't had meat in almost 7 months--still don't believe it Anyway have a good one
An enlightened society has no need to kill or torture others because it realizes that the “other” is just an illusion.. there is only “us” who know we are “I” and that “i” even a rock has.. but even more so animals have

We need to eat both meat and vegetables to maintain a healthy body...
It's not like you can just exclude one without a underlying condition, and not feel the effects.
The type of chickens they are raising here are not meant to live beyond about 12 weeks. If you took them to a sanctuary and gave them a good life they would still die quickly due to heart respiratory problems and stress fractures. These birds die crippled because they are bred to killed at 3 months or less....thier bones are literally too weak to support thier body weight
Human overpopulation contributes to all sorts of suffering including factory farming.
That's inaccurate because population doesn't always corelate with the amount of resources consumed. Americans and Europeans consume way more meat than Indians for example.
One dying chick out of thousands? Mother birds sometimes even throw the weakest bird out off the nest to its death.
Right! I didn't notice the harsh conditions that the dramatization implies...lol.

When presenting religious human beings with this type of treatment.......the response from those individuals,"GOD allows that type of suffering" ?????? "we enjoy this type of suffering, it is good for our children." All that pain & suffering injected into the consumer???
I grew up working a factory farm, and honestly, if you want to end the cruelty, maybe send a photography crew out to document the waste caused by companies like Walmart and target. If they wouldn’t waste as much we wouldn’t need to produce in such large quantities. Also, we as farmers work as much or more hours than lawyers (80-90 hrs non-winter) yet make very little. Want things to change? Look at the demand not the supply
yet, it has to end.
The first thing to do if you want to end the cruelty and want things to change is of course to go vegan. Then you yourself won't contribute to the breeding, exploitation and killing of these beings. Then, to make an even greater impact, become an animal rights activist and talk to others about the most neglected members in our society.
My dad worked at many farms like these farms because we were very poor and pretty much homeless I'd see dead baby chicks all over the place so many of them had broken legs and some of them were born deformed with extra legs
I had a pet chicken it was so cute!! But it died :((( and i kept one of their feathers for 1 year
My uncle lost his job in 2007 in LA he did a contract for six month to work in Iowa in some chicken farm !! His job was to remove the dead chickens !! He only lasted two weeks told his boss he had a family emergency in Cali and didn’t go back
The least we can do is not harm them.
Be vegan.

Gods creatures. This is so so sad. I need to quit eating meat. Intelligent animals. You would be very surprised on how much these animals are wanting to live not be eaten. My heart breaks for these poor birds. It's so sad to see this and it cannot be happening-
The Bible actually says in the book of genesis that humans are allowed to kill animals for food. I’m against animal cruelty and I do think it’s wrong how animals are treated in meat industries but I think it’s fine for people to hunt animals for food. In the wild deer and other animals get killed all the time by lions and wolves. I think that killing animals for food should be done humanely of course, like a quick and painless death. I mean it’s a circle of life after all.
@@seth2118 Cannibalism is the circle of life too since several species, including humans do it. Jeffrey Dahmer killed his human victims more painlessly than we do to non human animals. As for the Bible, anything can be justified using it including slavery

Here's what the Bible says about how to take care of animals...Prov. 12:10 "A righteous man regards the life of his animal, But the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel."Deut. 22:10 “You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together. In Genesis having dominion over all of the animals means to take care of them, to love them, as you love people, even loving your wife.
the sad thing is that the vast majority of people have mo idea how horrible it truly is for these perfect creatures. I am lucky enough to know. That is why I am vegan.
Iam vegetarian
Funny how this video pops up on my feed after I broke vegetarian diet after almost 3 years...
Could be a sign that you should get back on it.
It’s a sign go back before you get sick
i agree, animals are very valuable, they should all be treated just like any other pets like dogs. eating animals even costs more than just eating vegtables because you have to feen animals first for a long time, then kill them because their tasty...... watching this video made me realise that eating meat is not good for the fate of animals
It seems odd to me that there wasn't a clear statement suggesting people stop eating chicken. I love the exposure in htis, but the message to "never cause harm, never look away" is too vague for most people. The best thing consumers can do is stop buying dead animals and animal secretions. It's the only way to directly reduce suffering and death.
We humans are worst creature 😭
Animals woukd do tye same
Hey guys ! Hey Farmers , I just want to let you know that we’re not trying to stop you from what you’re doing we just want you to choose a new path of raising the chickens maybe just a little more humane, some windows, a little outdoor space, that’s all we ask is a change so that the chickens may have a happier life before they die. Please let’s do this together , peace and love!!
(Grew up working this kind of farm, family owned) unfortunately it’s not that simple. We own the land and buildings but a corporation makes us raise them that way. We don’t have the authority to change things. People who work or own these kind of farms don’t have the agency to alter its operation
What’s that gonna change? Nothing they’re still being killed either way
They’re still living short, brutal lives that end with a slit neck at 6 weeks… go vegan to make it stop
@@coltj5907 a corporation doesn't have authority. God does.

Nah
Ofcource some ways of animal farming is better but even if someone locked me in Disney world and killed me on my 18th birthday I still wouldn’t be ok with that !!
The thing that hurts a lot is that little chicken she holds and pets now is long dead and eaten because people are selfish.
TOTALLY INSANE, we need to stad up to these companies and sayyyyy somthinng doo somthing, we need a animals rights movement like greta thundenberg who is with me!!(im sooo serious send me your email lets start this and make NEWS HEADLINES )
They don't avoid her at first because they think she means harm. They shy away from people because it's a large animal they never interact with. They don't know they will be harmed.
Things like this encourage me to be a vegetarian.
These chickens are treated badly, seen as crops, being vulnerable only to be decapitated and served on to our plates ;-;

leicanoct being bred genetically to the point where your legs break under the weight of your own body isn’t abuse? Kept in a dark shed for your entire life isn’t abuse. Okay then...
Bry-Fi that’s called a strawman, sure there’s definitely situations where people can’t have a vegan diet, but what’s stopping those who can? Also the cheapest foods are things like pasta, rice, potatoes, bananas, oats, grains, legumes, bread etc all vegan. But you’re correct in that some people don’t have that access. But it would become more accessible to those people if those who could shifted to a plant based diet and a lot of systematic change occurred. I went vegan at 22 on minimum wage but in a very well off country with access to loads of stores and I personally saved money eating more whole plant foods.
@Bryrenaissanceguy Meat is only cheap because the government subsidizes it and then watches as poor people die 10 years younger than the rich.
God why do I watch these things? Anyone got eye bleach?
Poor baby's . I hate humans who think their taste buds are more important then a living being. I really hope they will be feel the same pain and horror that the animals they consume have to go trough.
2021 Im still eating chicken. God made animals so we can eat Them and if we treat them like their human that's kinda wrong because they are not human, We are and no matter how you raise the animal it all ends the same on a plate . these videos should not be the only reason why people go vegan.
Just eat from non factory farms. You are supporting torture. God didn’t make these animals, they evolved just like us. They can feel pain. They have a brain.
@@benjamingurevitch4097 well guess what eating that way costs more and not everyone can afford that
They are animals with brains and lives who can feel suffering. You can kill them, but not treat them as objects. Buy some meat where the animals are treated humanely before tey die.
@@sril6542 so simple right? Guess what that meat costs more money and most people can’t afford it
Meat is associated with global warming, higher rate of cancer and cardiovascular diseases, and poor economics in terms of food. With the resources that go to making non-vegetarian food, you can feed ten times more people with vegetarian food. Even more.
This makes me cry. I eat meat, but they should have a decent life, since they are going to be on a table.

You don't have to stop eating meat. You have to stop enabling massive industry that doesn't care. Local animal farmers with small abattoirs are constantly raided and shut down so they cannot compete with mega farmers and the big slaughterhouses. A small abattoir will kill quickly and humanely without missing and letting the animal linger in agony. There are more than enough films to show you the horrors of the major slaughterhouses.
I'll never regret becoming vegetarian ever again.
Male chickens are thrown into a blender shortly after birth because they're useless to the egg industry. Baby cows are separated from their mothers so they can't drink their milk. Please consider going vegan.
I was born vegetarian ive never eaten meat before.
Going vegan is too expensive for the poor so they will eat cheap meat
Rice, beans, other legumes, grains, potatoes, pasta, vegetables and some fruit are the cheapest things you can buy

These animals are not pets. They are bred for consumption by humans who eat chicken. Whether they are bred on a large farm or a small one their lives are short-lived. They are bred to be killed for human consumption. This video plays on your emotions. Remember not everyone is a vegetarian and a lot of people eat meat. This is a form of food bullying to advance the video maker's opinion. Basically, her platform of implied power. Would it be better to leave these chickens outside to be killed by foxes or opossums? Furthermore, would it be less cruel to give them a name and raise them as if they are your pet? Or better yet, free-range these chickens and let the environment kill them. So, what you are not mentioning is that factory farming is keeping the price of chicken meat affordable for low-income families that cannot afford Free-Range or Organic types of meat. Let's face it there are people starving all over the world. When you are watching this video think of someone who can not afford to even eat. Solve that problem first, then tackle big farming practices.
By the way, I am an animal lover, if I would have been at that farm filming a dying chicken. I would have picked the chicken up and taken it to the vet to try to save its life. Just food for thought.
You sound like my dad before he got sick--called plant based diet garbage. Thankfully he's healthy now and hasn't had meat in almost 7 months. Anyway have a good one
*If low income families cannot afford the free range or organic types of meat, they should quit the meat all together then, why they are so obsessed with eating meat in the first place? "If you don't afford, don't eat". Simple. We can live a good and healthy life on the Vegetarian or Diet too, which is more affordable.*
@@Logical_Human_ You expect people to live in perfect conditions. Some people don't live in an area with fresh and arable land. Furthermore, these factories supply jobs that help human lives. I feel like the definition of morality is based on species aka us humans, in the context of history. Im willing to sacrifice all these chickens for jobs of humans.
And some people still think lab-grown meat is "Frankenfood." Yikes.
To be honest I don’t really care. I don’t really care if animals are farmed. If there my pet I would love them, but if it was served to me on a plate, I would eat it.
That's extremely hypocritical. Your pet is no different than these animals here. If you're okay with one being abused, tortured, and locked away to sit in their own sick for the rest of their lives, you're okay with the same happening to your pet. Your an animal abuser if you support factory farming, plain and simple.
You sound like my dad before he got sick--said cows should mooove onto his plate! He's healthy now thankfully and hasn't had meat in almost 7 months Who saw that happening?!? Anyway have a good one
These chicks gets more space than newyokers
If it wasn't for factory farming the vast majority of people in this country couldn't afford to eat. And when I'm talking about factory farming I am also including those who raise fruit and vegetables. Anyone who wants proof of this just has to attend a farmer's market in the summer. The chicken free range on small farms run seven to ten dollars a pound raw. You can buy an entire factory farmed bird already cooked for five to six dollars in Jewel, Costco, or any other grocery store. Grass fed beef from a small ranch will run you twelve dollars a pound for ground beef and twenty eight dollars a pound for a cheap cut of steak. Tomatoes from a local farmer will run you five dollars a pound while the grocery store will sell them to you in season for a dollar to a dollar and a half a pound. Eggs from a local farmer will run you eight to twelve dollars a dozen while at the grocery store it will run you ninety cents to a dollar and a quarter a dozen. And if you think the animals on factory farms are treated badly than you've got a real surprise on how migrant farm workers are treated that pick you fruits and vegetable. They are paid slave wages and live in rat infested hovals. You've got entire families working the fields including kids a young as six years old working twelve hour days.
Bruh that’s cap. You forget that for every pound of animal products it took about 16 pounds of plant foods to make that. In the US alone 38 BILLION tax dollars are wasted on this wasteful industry that pollutes our waters, burns our trees and exploits humans. That tax money could be used to lower the cost of plant foods. What you just said is all straight cap.
Dude. Cellular ag.
Good point on the farm labor though.
Workers at factory farms and slaughter houses suffer from PTSD and the crime rates of communities surrounding these places are higher than the average with domestic abuse, child abuse and drug addiction.
Was it only me who saw this farm and thought it looked alright? good ventelation, food ,water , quite open with a little to many birds but i would say this is fine. if it was nature half of those birds would have died in the first weeks so stop crying about a a couple dead and those birds don'r know the different between the sun and a lamp. they don't need to freeze to death in the winter or in the rain and just so you know i own free range chickens but would say that is fine for a farm.

The factory farm workers clean it up for inspection and because it looks mildly hygienic, a few photographers can come in. Also, factory farmers aren't paid much and many of them are in debt; they don't even LIKE their job ( ; - ; )
You should wear a mask in there to be safe yourself!
This is a typical chick raising farm. A good percentage of chicks don't get to fully grow, regardless of how much time you put into each individual chicken. These are not the entirety of the living conditions and it makes me laugh and a little angered at how misleading videos are on this matter

Thank you
Factory-farmed chickens pose a significant threat to human health, primarily due to the high probability of zoonotic diseases escaping and causing a devastating pandemic. The conditions in which these chickens are raised-cramped, unsanitary, and stressful-create an ideal breeding ground for pathogens to develop and spread. This risk is compounded by the widespread use of antibiotics in these settings, which promotes the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
The cramped environments of factory farms facilitate the rapid transmission of diseases among the chickens. Pathogens such as avian influenza (bird flu) and salmonella thrive in these conditions. When these diseases make the jump from animals to humans, they can cause severe illness and have the potential to spread rapidly within human populations. The H5N1 strain of avian influenza, for example, has been known to infect humans, leading to severe respiratory illness and high mortality rates. The close quarters in which factory-farmed chickens are kept increase the likelihood of such viruses mutating and acquiring the ability to transmit more easily between humans.
Moreover, the extensive use of antibiotics in factory farming contributes to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. These bacteria can spread to humans through direct contact with animals, consumption of contaminated meat, or through the environment, such as water supplies contaminated with waste from the farms. When these antibiotic-resistant bacteria infect humans, they are much harder to treat, leading to higher morbidity and mortality rates. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) have repeatedly warned about the dangers of antibiotic resistance, noting that it poses one of the biggest threats to global health.
The environmental impact of factory farming also plays a role in the spread of zoonotic diseases. The massive amounts of waste produced by these farms can contaminate soil and water sources, spreading pathogens far beyond the confines of the farm. This environmental contamination can affect nearby human populations, increasing the risk of disease outbreaks. Additionally, the pollution caused by factory farms can lead to respiratory problems and other health issues in humans, further weakening their ability to fight off infections.
Ethical and welfare concerns in factory farming, while primarily focused on animal suffering, also intersect with human health risks. The stress and poor health conditions experienced by the chickens can lead to the emergence of more virulent strains of diseases, which can then spread to humans. This creates a cycle of poor animal welfare leading to greater human health risks.
Given these factors, the high probability of zoonotic diseases escaping from factory farms and causing a pandemic is a significant concern. The COVID-19 pandemic, believed to have originated from a zoonotic source, has shown the devastating impact such diseases can have on global health, economies, and societies. The potential for factory-farmed chickens to be the source of the next pandemic cannot be ignored.
Addressing this threat requires a multi-faceted approach, including improved farming practices, stricter regulations on antibiotic use, enhanced surveillance for zoonotic diseases, and greater emphasis on animal welfare. By taking these steps, we can reduce the risk of zoonotic diseases escaping from factory farms and protect public health from the threat of future pandemics.
interacting so this video gets out there
Showing everyone this will show the cruelty of these places, and maybe they can make better farms, where the animals at least are happy.
If you feel so sorry for the chicken then buy it from the farm and take it to the vet. The farm will probably give it to you since it'll just be going into the dead pile anyway.
By doing that you're only giving them more money to continue this line of abuse.
I wish I could sit with all those chickens. Seeing stuff like this…it makes me feel so bad…
