This is true, however the time that would go into that plus the money lost from the byproduct of the culled birds is a factor. There are underlying factors I.e dog food production. Did you think they raise chickens specifically to produce these high end dog foods. There is more to business than meets the public eye. I admire your commitment to logic but you are talking capitalism there is only the bottom line.
Tyson and purdue and such use young roosters that have been nuetered for meat production so why cull when you could sell meat birds for meat.
Tyson and Perdue are big "meat" companies. I was talking about hatcheries and eggs for eating.
You are looking at it from the wrong perspective and its a logical one but just not what it is.
I was just thinking if they could sell to these companys for meat that would be better than tossing out and waisting roosters. Im not trying to poke the bear sir just giving an opinionated idea.
the point is dead roosters make money too. so they have to be hatched to be killed to serve the demand.
the demand only came from their inability to hatch all hens. They are spending money hatching those roosters so of course they look for a way to make some money back on a byproduct. Common sense can't be taught my friend.
