Why the egg industry shreds newborn baby chicks

  • Every year millions of baby chicks are born into the egg industry. These chicks have been selectively bred for one purpose - to lay eggs. But obviously only females can lay eggs...so what happens to all the males? Well, according to the egg industry, male chicks and any other chick deemed unfit for egg production are considered waste products and must be disposed of. This has led to the development of a brutally efficient method for killing these unwanted babies - they are shredded alive in industrial macerators.

    Europe has already figured out a solution to this, this is completely unnecessary. They developed a scanner that can quickly tell which eggs are male and which are female and can separate them, so the male eggs never hatch to begin with, they just stay un-incubated eggs. This is not just much more humane, but it is also much more cost-efficient because you don't have to incur costs for incubating, feeding, staffing, manually identifying chicken sex, incurring a 50% loss of eggs/chicks, etc. With this technology, even the greediest business owner has zero excuse to be inhumane. Europe shows a lot of leadership in animal rights, we need to learn from them.

      Imagine coming out of an egg, as a male chick, breaking your way out, expecting a mother hen, but when you come out, suddenly bad smell and bright lights shine your eyes, blinding you. Then, you are suddenly tossed into a crate, then dropped into conveyor belt, with other chicks, and thinking you’ll go to your mom, until you are dropped in a circular conveyor belt, then some guy suddenly picks you up and carelessly throws you into a grinder and five stacked macerators. You think its just a maze, but when you fall, you suddenly get smashed everywhere, from the neck to the body, to the beak to the legs, down to the butthole, you feel pain for half a second, then suddenly everything blurs for one second then blackouts. And now you are in the male landfill, sometimes with a few female chicks, but many males, unable to turn your head, hear, smell, even move your mouth muscles a single nanometer, and only faintly seeing light come after the blackout, then while your eyelids are open, you blackout again, even though your eye was open! It then turns out you are missing a body, as that body was 3 meters away from you.

  • @ulawan5
    @ulawan5 4 года назад +1515

    I think one of the other ways to solve this is to shorten supply chains. Reduce demand yes, but if you keep your own chickens locally or know someone who does, the demand can be met much more humanely, and laying hens often lay WAY more than a single family can use. (Freezing also keeps them fresh for longer and makes no difference in baking.) Shopping locally at farmer's markets is a good idea in general, too.
    Industrial agriculture is one of the biggest problems for the planet, and egg substitutes just shift demand to another industry focused on profits through monoculture.
    It's a hard issue we have to tackle together with our neighbors. Good luck out there.

      I am surprised this needs to be explained in this day and age when one can look that up.
      Nobody disputes that chicken farming is cruel. Large scale veggie farming is not much different. Heard of insect decline? Sure, bugs are not cute and fluffy, but they are more useful for the ecosystem than any chicks. So if you want no cruelty, never ever buy anything from a large-scale producer.
      If you do, but get teary-eyed because something cute and fluffy gets ground up (they can make fertilizer and pet food out of these, by the way) while ignoring everything else, it is a wrong attitude.

    Personally, I think that this is extremely unfair. Companies that put money-first kill chickens without a thought about whether to consider their perspective. Unfortunately, most companies that have a money first mindset are the most successful ones so not many people try to stop them. However, I don’t think that stop eating eggs entirely is a solution. It’s important to note that many other species consider chickens as a must have food. I think the best thing to do for an immediate impact is eat meat and eggs from reliable local farmers who show care for animals. While not the most successful, they are, at least in my opinion, the best and most reliable people for farming out there. Just my opinion and maybe y’all can feel a little sympathy every time you eat meat or eggs.

    This is why farm to table is very important and the age of factory farming needs to come to an end.

      Exactly. Corporate food suppliers should cease to exist. They are evil and unnecessary.

      Do you think those farmers spend money raising males? They cull them too.

      @@ericpark8956 typically they are sold off or raised until butchering age not thrown in grinder but I am sure some farmers out there like to make ground chick for their dogs.

      It's a wasteful practice because all those male chickens could be raised for food. But everyone is told that male chickens are not good to eat and for the egg farmers raising male chickens to eat is less profitable than selling eggs.
