There are videos of huge trucks dumping chickens in a landfill in Ohio. Happened june 18th. Some of the chickens were still alive.
Wasn’t reported on much in mainstream media.
“The ODA also stated that these birds in particular did not have any diseases. Instead, they were at the end of their egg-laying cycle, writing: “It is a standard practice in the poultry industry to euthanize a flock when laying hens reach the end of their productive life cycle.””
That’s b.s. Such birds are turned into food for humans or animals.
Is bird flu back?
Report says they are being investigated for not euthanizing animals before dumping.
Here is another video source.

This is the unseen side and eventually the crux of the romantic idea on “ethical animal production”, there is not enough land to cover the demand from consumers AND let them have a decent life at the same time. Reduce your consumption of products containing eggs, try out vegan recipes, by leaving out eggs of your cake or replacing them with alternatives, keeping the demand at the same horizon by buying local & organic is not a long-term solution sadly.
