I used to own chickens. Lots and lots of the little birds ran around the yard, plopped out eggs, and made more chicks. I am an animal lover, and I got to know these birds like the back of my hand. Instead of doing the typical teen things, I would play with the chickens or the dogs or the cats. But, this entry is specifically about those lesser-known fowls.

Abuse of animals is never tolerable, but it seems that anti-abuse groups tend to focus on those animals that are “cute and cuddly”. Most don’t see chickens as cute, or cuddly. Nonetheless, they are animals, and they deserve proper treatment. Chickens deemed for slaughter are sometimes abused during shipping, killed while they are conscious, and even boiled alive.
