An estimated 4-6 billion male chicks are slaughtered globally every year because they serve no economic purpose.

Transgender activists - take note. :)

I don’t understand the killing of all male baby chicks. I realize that Frank Perdue isn’t in Asia, but doesn’t anybody over there raise chickens for use as broilers or fryers, oven-stuffer-roasters.....wings? Or any use other than laying hens?

Male chicks are raised for people food. Many growers would rather have male chicks than female as they seem to grow heavier. At three months old they are tender and tasty.

That’s why they get their wee wees chopped off. It doesn’t increase their worth but it lets them “pass” and get into lady pageants.
