How do I rescue chickens from slaughterhouses and factories?

[BDutch]

Most of the major brands of chicken feed are vegetarian now (in fact, Purina just recently came out with a separate non vegetarian one) and my fish food doesn’t have any chicken in it either.

In Europe its forbidden to add meat to feed bc diseases have spread in the past doing so. Has to do with health care.

One thing I found out only recently the chickens sold in many shops have been pumped up with soya to fatten them up. Many people are allergic to gluten which is in soya other people have gained excessive weight which is a double health hazard.

I recently heard something similar, though I haven’t dug into it yet.

I think that happened with the mad cow disease. It's scary UK leaving Europe I hope our food standards don't drop.

Do you mean they inject the flesh with soy?
That really stinks. Find it hard to believe though . Bc if they do so it should say so in a note on the package. Otherwise people with allergies can get sick /can get it shock. And the factory definitely gets suited.

Will find the report when I can for you. Even feeding soya isn't good for us

All factory farmers feed GMO soy to chickens, pigs and cows in the Netherlands. The Dutch farmers are one of the mayor consumers of soy from Brazil (and indirectly responsible for setting fire to the rainforest). That one of the reasons I don’t eat factory meat and buy organic food for my bantams.
