- NON-GRAPHIC Imagine if your only purpose was to be killed.
This is the sad reality for approximately 664,000,000 chickens in Australia.
In just seven weeks they reach their slaughter weight of ~2.52kg.
This RSCPA Australia approved farm supplies to Coles and Woolworths.

Understand, this breed of chicken…. Cornish cross that I raised is ready to butcher at 7-9 weeks of age. They are so heavy they can barely walk. I put mine out in the grass for some free range time. They waddled the 30 feet back to the feeder to sit in front of it. My home raised chickens were no tastier than store bought, the kill/butcher day wasn’t much fun. I got no satisfaction or pleasure from it. So, unless your a vegetarian who never eats meat you need to understand that commercial meat production keeps blood off our hands so we can pretend we’re virtuous, loving and wonderful people. I’m going to continue to eat meat but I will not be raising animals for my own consumption. Until you have raised animals to kill and slaughter you have no understanding of the breeds and the process. Oh, and it was the most expensive chicken I’ve ever bought…. So there was no savings there either. Maybe if I breeded chickens to raise for slaughter I might be able to break the cost down. Otherwise I had about $25 in each chicken.
Instead of funding the salaries to the ppl that slaughter livestock and poultry, that money should go more towards better housing projects, financial aid money for college students that wanna do good in life, or saving wildlife
This is sad this year i have 2 broilers and i rasied them very well the day my Mom said that they need to be slaughtered and i cried so hard compare to other chicken's who can spend their life for 10 years not like these :(
Chicken can lay only 100 eggs and they have difficulty after that.
Death is their mercy of suffering from bottom pain.
Also roosters cause heavy stress because of natural aggression after 8 montha.
Precious
Poor chickens I mean yea we can eat them but don't put them in a confined space for all their life I had broiler chickens ate 3 out of the 5 and let them have the best of their lives before they went away
Yeah, give them a good life before killing them. That's preferable
@@aiodensghost8645would you give your dog a good life before killing them?
That's how I feel. We can keep eating meat, but for crying out loud, let the animals have a decent life before they're butchered.
That's disgusting and I will never buy another one.
Thank you
Please what re dey eating.need d formula.Thanks
Every day you are on the earth, something had to die. The clothes on you back, the food in your belly, the petrol in your car, everything. It’s not pretty, but it’s life.
So we can kill each other?
you've been sold a lie about dominion. When in reality it's all made of mind. And what you are caught in, is a saturnine loop called the victim and perpetrator cycle. If you decided to put a stop to it in your, you life would change.
@@bb9a animals are below us, maybe a tough pill for you to swallow but it's true
But they could at least make their time while their alive better.
Doc very good
They're only babies who should be with their mummy, not in an overcrowded shed and certainly not experiencing a slaughterhouse at 6 weeks, if ever.
Unfortunately these chicken cannot live a long life they'd die regardless.
Me dad works at one we kill maybe 10 a day that are sick
You’re projecting your idea of experience onto these chickens.
What about the cockroach you killed a while ago? Shouldn’t it be taken care of and not have to scurry away from your abuse? You should keep it as a pet like the one in the movie Wall-e
They are not humans
@@davidt8274 cockroaches are nuisance you can't compare them with animals. Also it's a fact that people are not gonna stop eating chicken but atleast they shouldn't be treated like this after all they are innocent voiceless and helpless
This is the demand we humans place on farmers for very affordable meat. And the demand we have for chicken nuggets always tasting the same.
As a small chicken farmer myself, I can say it's far less expensive to by chicken at a store than to raise them, on a small scale at home.
I don't agree with how these commercial chicken farmers raise their meat birds; actually, I find it inhumane. But some may find my way of raising chickens inhumane as well. I don't free range them...don't have the space; rather, I put them in a chicken tracker and move them on fresh grass daily. It's a lot of work but worth it. At least my chicken get fresh air, sunshine, water, grass and bugs daily. Not to mention treats. : )
More people would be vegetarians if they had to butcher their own meat.
Our extant closest ancestor (chimp) doesn't eat meat. Our ancestor started eating meat since 2.399.999 BCE.
Broiler chickens are selectively bred to grow super fast, for meat production. Their diet also excludes extra calcium as they are not raised for eggs.
Their 5 week of experience and lack of other reference experience means that they won’t really be that upset, unlike humans who live long lives and would have experienced both good and bad.
Trying to project your own experience onto them, or anthromophosize these broiler chicken is but social justice parading to mask unfounded guilt.
If they were subject to daily beatings, physical labor, starved, sexual abuse, social humiliation, then yes, that would be something wrong.
Lack of provision of intellectual stimulation however, I.e providing PlayStation or fancy gyms/spas/touring vacation equivalents on the other hand, is not abuse.
Depriving them of predator stress should also not be considered abuse.
A chicken left in the wild doesn’t cultivate the field or garden it lives in, it uses it to hide from predator, and go about eating and copulating. It doesn’t usually participate in play behavior either.
Being exposed to danger, there is a necessity for the mother to rear the chicks til they achieve sufficient independence. Even so, the chicks and chicken can get killed by wild animals like foxes.
If all life is equal, then so are insects and ‘pests’ like rats and cockroaches. They get abused, trapped, poisoned, shot, killed, brutalized in all sorts of ways. Warfarin essentially cause rats to bleed out internally and die. Why not post videos on actual animal abuse?
Life isn’t equal, many humans suffer more than these broiler chickens. In fact, the broiler chickens look fine and not stressed. They perhaps look a little bored and ugly from how their genetics have been selected for, but they haven’t been beaten daily or have been subjected to other such abuse.
Why pay for their suffering if you don't have to? No one is making you eat chicken.
Guess it's ok to raise children into slavery too cos they don't know any better
Reducing the suffering in this world, even if you can’t reduce it altogether, by refusing to eat animals isn’t a bad thing. Stop projecting your shitty views on others.
@@BenTheCuber because they aren't suffering. This video contains 0 information, pretty much
Wow farming chickens are pretty amazing. They grow so fast and look at all that meat. They would make for a fairly nutritious meal.
😢
😥
How can these beasts call it a “broiler”?
If your house is as disgusting and wet as that house at two weeks you fucked up. Where I work your shit better be dry, chickens need to be comfortable.
good
How long could they live if we wont eat them
Most would die of heart attacks soon after.
Prince 504 They would only live like a few days to 2 weeks if we don’t butcher them so it’s for the best since they would develop health problems from growing too much.
saddly, due all the stuff they put in their food and genetics, they hardly ever live past 6 months, they get so fat that they can not stand and have a lot of heart and pulmonary problems, they just flap their wings and fall to the side dead...
@@omegarugal9283Let's say without factory, themselves feeding from vitamin d and being healthy, how really long can live?
I've seen some chicken live over a year being healthy.
The longest record is over 21 years.
If I were able to sneak in to the farm or whatever this chickens are at I will try to break the wall open so the chickens will be free of suffering and have their best lives
Yes
Life brings suffering along with it
Im sorry to bring it to you, but these chickens will have a horrible life if you save them. They were bred to be fattened up. Their whole bodies are just wrong.... its so sad.
Dang too sad. I wish we didn't have to eat our chickens when they stop laying. I wish they could live to old age because I want the best for them. I love them 💜
@Mark Philip Del Pilar yeah. Great job
You definitely do not HAVE to eat them. Tf?
@@Aashishkebab If you don't eat meat, you will become much more stupid. Because your brain will spend energy digesting complex foods instead of letting your brain act actively.
Please say y’all saved Charlie
Nah, he's in my stomach.
Charlie's on my cheesesteak
1dt day it weight should be 40-45 g
Poor little sweethearts. That’s no life. They deserve so much better. 💔😿
My chick name is coocoo and he is eaten by cat I am so sad 😢😢😢
Tan chiquitos y sin ver la luz del sol todos apiñados ni se aguantan de lo gordos que están increible lo que les pasa y que van a morir pobrecitos animalitos tan lindos
Life eats life. It's unavoidable.
It's easy to accept it when you're the one who does the eating. I wonder if you would be so accepting of the natural order of things in Hannibal Lacter's table, feeding you your leg cooked in clay..
@@glitchquitch not just me. Literally every living thing feeds of other living things.. despite it's size or hierarchy
Are you insane? This is completely 100% avoidable. Excuse making
@@john.premosego learn class 6 energy pyramid, being vegan doesn't mean u don't eat a life , plants u eat also have life
@@PC-mv4ye that's how you know there is no "god", every living thing has to eat other life, or at least animals do. Do you actually think you're telling me something I don't know?
It is sad. But most of the time, life can be sad! If the food supply would be rid of poultry, beef and dairy, then we would be seeing a sad documentary of starving children in the United States and abroad because humanity got rid of 30 percent of the food supply!
Totally nonsense concept.
@@Krsna-nn4um Why?
@@gvinnydog5500. these r misinformations which r purposely spread bro.
WOMP WOMP I WANT MORE KFC
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
The first chicken looked high lol
If we weren't meant to eat meat it wouldn't be so damned delicious. BTW my pet chickens fucking love meat of all kinds, pork, hamburger etc its literally their favorite thing in the world besides bugs (which is also kind of meat). If a chicken was big enough it would swallow you whole without a thought...
This why everyone should be vegetarian. There is no difference between the soul in that chick and the soul in you and I
Worth it for those chicken nuggets
We all cross the threshold of Death, some sooner than others.
Vegan. Dairy and eggs are also incredibly cruel.
If you pick something that isn’t from an industrial farm your chicken wouldn’t have a life like this
Life is cruel
Know life know pain
No life no pain
I hope, one day, humans will no longer have the necessity to eat chicken. It hurts to see their lives being snatched away just to satiate the needs of us omnivores. Of course, they were created to be eaten (and I do eat chicken!) but still, looking at that chick that's barely 0 week hurts me, because, its race isn't even allowed to live to an old age. Sigh.
We never had the necessity to eat chicken. If you are eating chicken, you are paying for them to have their throats slit.
Bro rlly just typed sigh
Well, at least they serve a purpose and fulfill it completely . Most people can't say that. "Eat Chicken".
It's really amazes me how we care more about animals than we do about other people
@Chitranjan Soni i mean humans are kinda a virus and detroy nature so its good when they die but an animal dose not really destroy nature like we do so there more valuble
@@liliaoneo3755 agreed
animals are treated FAR worse than people
Are you stupid or dumb? Maybe idiotic? Or maybe imbecilic?
The animals in the video are going to be EATEN you chinless fuck.
@@BenTheCuberikr, i dont see 20 million humans get shedded because they cant make eggs
No... animals are not of equivalent value to people..
Let’s go vegan one day; many delicious options out there without hurting innocent animals
So sad 😢 breaks my heart 💔 nasty cruel world
Pure horror.
Poor little babies . So sad to think of them. Can feel their pain 😓 and fear . God has given vegetables and plants to eat and not to slaughter and eat these little creatures . They too feel pain like us . All are requested to stop killing these animals for food😓. Show kindness to these animals . Treat them with love and affection .God has created this world not only for us . See how they all look so cute .
Hope this message changes this world .
And now I am craving a chicken sandwich. Thanks Charlie!!!
They never got to see sunlight 😢
Outside the jungle that is the jungle fowl descendants job. Now how the animal is reared and processed is super important.
I raised baby broiler chickens before. but they grew slowly. not like 1 kg in 1 month. Also they didn’t grow so big and fat and meaty. why?
Because these chicken farms give them needles to make them grow bigger...its bad for us to eat it
we have got some edgy non vegans in the comment section below.
‘Charlie’ would not even exist - he’s only there to become food. The idea that these chickens could just be ‘with their mummies’ and then die of old age is ridiculous. They are food not pets.
Who told you that?
They have also life and right to live
If you can eat them so I can eat you as well
Chickens live about 4 years in the wild if they are pets. However, a real chicken would probably live around one year before a hawk, coyote, or fox eats them alive. Also, most of the babies will die from predators and only a few would make it to adulthood. We are acting like if they were free, they would live this wonderful life in the wild. They all would get ripped apart by a predator and eaten alive. At least humans give them somewhat of a peaceful ending by being stunned before they are killed. They are prey animals and are meant to be eaten.
Like how we banned slavery, women’s rights, and the death penalty we have to abolish animal slaughter
Thank you. Finally someone who understands.
I really don't care, I want my goddamn fried chicken.
Such a bad person
Bull 💩 I’ve kept poultry and no way does a chick become 10X it’s weight in 3 weeks
This is sad but necessary. Nature intended for life forms to eat other life forms.
how do you feel about dog meat?
I’ve never tried it
tasty
I had chicken for dinner... it was delicious. I've killed chicken with my hands before. You can cut the head off at the neck or you can crack its neck by swinging it around by the head... Good times, good times..
its pretty normal
this is our planet
we were using animals to feed ourselves for millions of years
buoni sono gustosi😍😍😍
I wish you will also became chicken in your next life
Jesus will do justice
Damn Charlie's looking pretty delicious for my cheesesteak
someone say kfc?, i don't care, i love it
I hope you develop empathy when you grow up
Sarah Elizabeth empathy? This has been food for people since the beginning of time. Who are you to change things because your heart bleeds for someone else’s BBQ wings?
Thomas Engel people at the beginning of time also raped and murdered so I’m not sure what your point is there. If you wouldn’t like to be abused and killed for a pizza topping, then don’t pay for it to be done to others. That’s empathy.
@@sarahelizabeth2359 somebody say kfc?, i don't care, i love it
xXsterlo earrapeXz hope there’s reincarnation so you can come back as a factory farmed chicken or pig
This music is making me hungry
Looks delicious
