Chick culling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I lived on a farm when I was but a youth.
We raised and slaughtered our meat.
Chickens, pigs, cows all went on the table.
Add in the deer and turkeys ( in season of course ) we ate good.

Hey, I'm with you guys on the waste......We had about the same number of chickens on our spread, Kwik......
We did a lot of pressure canning with the older birds.....Made the meat nice and tender and went great into the soups and stews.....
I suppose with the huge 'layer' operations when they're dealing with thousands of birds....Messing around with letting the males grow up just isn't practical....and would be counter-productive and time-consuming.....
