In factory farms, chicken cages, particularly for hens raised for egg production, are often very small, typically measuring about 18 inches wide and 24 inches deep. In these cages, multiple hens are confined together, sometimes with as many as five to ten birds per cage, leading to extremely limited space for movement. This confinement can significantly restrict their natural behaviors and cause stress. The use of battery cages, which are particularly cramped, has come under increasing scrutiny and is being phased out in some regions due to animal welfare concerns.

How are chickens taken care of on farms?

It depends on the farm.Some farms keep the animals in very small cages and feed them tonnes of food every day. This makes them big and fat so that they fetch a better price in the supermarkets.Other, free range farms let the chickens have loads of space outside in fields, but these chickens tend to be a lot smaller.


Does fried chicken make you fat?

Certainly. In fact, factory farmed chickens are fed very unhealthy diets, and often have a very high fat percentage in their bodies. In turn, eating factory farmed chickens, and any factory farmed animals, is very unhealthy. Free range chickens are almost never fat, unless they are fed fattening foods. Breeds like Cornish, which are kept almost exclusively for meat, are bred to grow fast, and can get quite fat, again, in a factory farmed setting. Some of them get so big and fat in factory farms that they can have severe leg problems, and suffer extreme cruelty. Thus, eating free range chicken (or no chicken) is not only much healthier, but much kinder.
