You have to see this.

that was awful to watch - those poor babies getting throw around like that - makes you wonder how many end up with broken legs, necks, wings - or how many many get killed

How stressfull for those babies. It's amazing they survive, at all.

know i really know why i always buy free range from people i can trust. I'm just glad that at least our chicks are treated well.

 

[hobobrando]

That is horrible. I wonder how the little things make it?

 

[hypnofrogstevie]

I will never support any hatcheries. I like hatching my own eggs. Even when the odds are against me I will always hatch my own

I wonder...can all chicks be sexed that way or just certain breeds?

 

[speckledhen]

Just certain breeds can be sexed like that.

OMG! Those poor little chicks...what a cold way to come into the world. And I shutter to think of the ones that get stuck in the shell/chick seperator

What can you do about supply and demand though

I'm with you. Hatching can be difficult and emotional but I think the wholesaling of little lives is just wrong.
