Poultry Farming Advancements - America's Heartland

We're eating more chicken today than ever before. With increased chicken choices at fast food restaurants and chicken being a popular choice for those looking for a low fat, high protein meal, the demand for chicken grows and so does the need to produce more birds for market. We'll take you to Arkansas where one agricultural operation works to build a better bird!

    @rexdrew1987 Yes, don't eat raw eggs if you are elderly, an infant, or immunocompromised, but otherwise it's not that risky. And salmonella infection is possible anywhere, but the crowded and stressful conditions on intensive factory farms means there is a much higher risk of infection.

    I know that this was posted a while ago, but there is something called biosecurity. With America's demand of eggs/chicken products, you have to deal with having an extremely high amount of birds. Keeping chickens outside would increase the risk of depredation. Keeping all of the chickens in a very large space, it would be very hard to ensure that all of the chickens are disease free and safe. The poultry industry is far from perfect, but it is truly difficult to find a flawless method.

    @lovebigboobs29 fair enough. they are cheap to buy and easy to find in stores. Either you care what you put in your body or you don't. I like knowing what went into the chicken before I ate it, how it was treated, and how it was killed. If you have never had non-store bought food, you might be shocked. I raised a turkey last year. free range, no antibiotics, etc.. It ended up weighing 26lbs once dressed and was by far the best tasting turkey I have ever eating hands down.

    @SuperAnimalDrummer Male chicks aren't ground up alive. They're euthanized via cervical dislocation then donated to wildlife organizations that feed them to their animals. Also, many are kept for breeding and experimental purposes. Beaks are not cut off, for if they were, they wouldn't be able to eat, they're trimmed to minimize damage, chickens have a strict pecking order, and pecking amongst themselves is unavoidable. I'm a pre-vet student working on a poultry farm.

    @gillamfarms Like they had been doing for thousands of years before the advent of factory farming, and like they still do in third world countries: by keeping small flocks in family backyards and feeding them with a combination of table scraps and whatever they can forage on their own. Factory farmers want you to think their methods are the only way, but it's really just a clever way for big corporations to make lots of money by concentrating the whole business in the hands of a few.

I don't blame the food but it definately could have been a factor. As a father of a 7 year old girl, i don't want her to grow boobs at age 10 from the growth hormones in our food. The worst part about the problems with our food and food supply chain is that you usually don't find out about the problems until people are already dead or sick

    So silly. My chickens run around and eat bugs and grass all day and are fat and when I cut a couple of them for tandoori, they were the BEST tasting chickens in the world. These sterile chickens have NO taste and needs tons of spices and tenderizers etc with mono sodium glutamate to have any taste. Sad chickens are kept so cooped up though here they at least get to move about a bit. If chickens were fertilizing farms instead of farmers using poisonous fertilizers such as urea (which damages their kidneys especially in third world countries like India where farmers don't use gloves) both agriculture and chicken raising would need NO subsidies and one would symbiotically help the other and profits for both chicken and farms would double. Keep a chicken outdoors and it would rather pick on greens and grass and wild bugs than head for a bowl of chicken feed. I bet these chickens are full of anti biotics too which get passed on to the consumers. Nothing wrong with DIRT. We are made of DUST and will return to it.

    Take the recent salmonella epidemic with eggs, for example- those were from battery hens, and you never hear stories like that with small, pastured flocks. I have a flock of chickens myself and I eat their eggs raw, and have never gotten sick. And I know from experience that coops with small flocks do not get dirty easily. In fact, if you have a reasonable density of birds in the coop has a thick layer of pine shavings, you only need to clean it out about once a year, as it composts itself.

    I raise a few chickens, and I can tell you folks that the birds you see in this video are sick. Look at how patchy-looking the feathers are on these birds. It is symptomatic of close-confinement. Buy chicken from a local farmer that raises free-range birds. Or better yet, raise your own. If you have a yard and are free to do so, raise some birds. They are a bunch of fun!

  • @maximum411
    @maximum41113 жыл бұрын

    @gillamfarms You don't need much space to keep a flock of chickens- just a small backyard, which most people have. And not every single family needs a flock, of course. And not so about the bird flu- large flocks are much more susceptible to disease than small flocks- it only takes one weakened bird out of the bunch to catch the disease. And all these "biosecurity" measures create birds with weak immune systems that cant fight off infections.

    Battery cages are certainly a disgrace and they should be outlawed! They prevent natural chicken behaviour! Barn conditions are much better as they give movement space, some natural lighting, dust for dust baths and other things that chickens need to be healthy. Barns aren't perfect and are still crowded, but lets consider that many humans actively choose to live in crowded conditions, so it can't be all that bad...
