we plead not guilty.
- 1. We plead not guilty.
- 2. From the family farm to factory farm, our life drastically changes. We are condemned to life sentences in tiny cages, We are treated worse than any criminals of our time.
- 3. We are not allowed to hatch our eggs. Not only we are deprived from our motherhood but sad things happen to our babies.
- 4. Our male babies are killed just after they come from their shells. They are either tossed into trash bags to suffocate or grounded alive.
- 5. our female chicks will have their beaks cut off with a hot blade without any pain relief.
- 6. In this factory farm, we are living in battery cages. We are living with 5 to 11 chickens packed in tiny cages.
- 7. we are missing the fresh air and the rain falling from sky…….
- 8. In these factory farms, if there is any thing falling down, it will be urine and feces from the upper floor of the battery cages.
- 9. In these factories, we are missing our social life. we have a complex social hierarchies, and every one of us know her place on the social ladder.
- 10. We like to have some exercise, but with a lack of space we can never flap our wings.
- 11. We like to take sunbathe, but lot of us never see sunlight in our lives.
- 12. Naturally, we like to take dust bath by rolling our body in a dust, but we are not allowed to take a single bath in our life.
- 13. We are natural forager, but now we are not allowed to peck at the ground for food.
- 14. We are not allowed even to touch the ground. All our life, our feet are on the wires of the cages.
- 15. Naturally, We are mostly herbivore, but we also enjoy eating earthworms, insects, and slugs. Sadly, they make us become cannibals by feeding us cheap by-products made from the unwanted parts of dead bodies of own own species.
- 16. Naturally we live up to 10 years. But, in this stressful conditions, our life span is limited to 18 months because our productivity of eggs, at this age, become lower.
- 17. This life makes us sick.
- 18. If you could test samples from us, you may find residues from antibiotics, pain killer ( Tylenol) ,caffeine, antidepressant and antihistamine for respiratory problems due to our confined and crowded environment.
- 19. As farm animals, we are exempt from Cruelty to Animals Acts. Our well being depends of the consumers reactions, the less you purchase products made from abused chickens the more you discourage any unethical meat and egg industry .
- 20. Picky eaters, lead the industry to Package our meat by specific part of our body like legs and wings. This allowed overproduction, it mean more crowded spaces, it mean more suffering.
- 21. If we take the example of wings, if every week, each one of a family of 4 persons eat 5 wings, it means 20 wings for the whole family. It means 10 chickens slaughtered to feed 4 persons for one meal. It mean more than 40 chickens per month for only 4 meals. Enough chickens for a luxury wedding dinner in some countries.
- 22. A farmer doesn’t raise chicken breasts or chicken legs, she or he raises whole chickens. So when demand for one part is much higher than the others, this creates a supply problem.
- 23. Buy the whole chickens instead of the packaging of specific part our body. Or Buy chickens cut in pieces made from the whole part our the body.
- 24. Eating more meals made from plants lead to a healthy production of chickens that respect our well being.
- 25. If you can afford it, then buy organic chickens meats and eggs from your local farmers, at farmers markets, or buy a share as part of a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program.
- 26. If you like it and you can afford it, why you do not raise back yard chickens?. So you have no doubt about the well being of the chickens. you can eat healthy eggs from happy chickens.
- 27. Under public pressure, some fast food companies began to switch to cage- free chickens. Instead of cages, we are packed by thousands in a building under 24-hour lighting.
- 28. beside opportunity to expand our wings and to stand on the ground, no good changes happen. From life sentence prison to massive refugees camp.
- 29. We are looking for a real solution that allowed us to get lots of sunlight, be delighted to roam around in a large space outside, eat green plants, wild seeds, earthworms and insects and be able to perform our natural chickens behaviors like nesting, perching and dust bathing.
