It's a heck of a lot more unnatural in a battery farm and a lot more dangerous for them out in the wild.
So what exactly can we possibly do to make life better for them?
Take them to a poultry health spa, with a sauna, wading pool, buffet, wide screen TV, massage, (and a playground for the little chicks, to give mom a break) :confused: ?
 
@RoyalChick
I think a weak solution of salt in distilled water would be better than a teabag. Imo
Saline works well too of course (as long as you use clean water).
The teabag trick was something my mother learned from the vet at the local animal rescue where they used them for mild conjunctivitis in many of their animals.
The tea has anti-inflammatory agents which is probably why it is recommended for people to reduce swelling and bags under the eyes (personally I have never tried to get rid of the suitcases under my eyes :lau ) and is commonly used to draw a sty (stye) in people.
I have always found it convenient for bathing eyes rather than finding cotton balls, sterilizing saline etc.
Anyway, I am not trying to sell anything to anyone, just sharing something that I learned that has at least some scientific basis and certainly does no harm.

The wading pool needs to be filled with high quality dirt, another with dry leaves and lots of bugs anda 3rd with wet dirt loaded with worms. TV set to A Bug's Life. Triple fountain with spring water, cider water, and muddy bottom water (maybe with minnows in the shallow pool. Lots of sunshine, light breeze, dappled shade, and some hammocks/swings for napping in...
