Commercial birds are breed and maybe genetically modified for maximum and fast growth. They just keep growing until their little hearts can’t keep up. We picked up a few chicken truck escapees and they live a bout a year and die when they’re about the size of a medium turkey.

I wonder if they die of heart disease. Maybe if they were allowed to run around in the yard looking for bugs to eat instead of being fed large amounts of chicken feed, they'd live a little longer.
