Chickens take 6 to 12 weeks to fully mature for processing, depending on the breed. I can and have slaughtered/processed one in minutes. Usually in large batches. I’ll time my next batch.

Tyson Foods closed four meatpacking plants in order to open insect packing plants staffed by illegals.

Tyson Foods got busted a while back using illegal immigrants to run its plants. Recently it has been working with Biden to hire “asylum seekers” (illegal immigrants that Biden granted permission to get jobs). Conservatives found out about it, publicized it, and started a boycott.

Not defending Tyson, but is there a possibility of avian flu spreading?
Given todays uber-control by big EVERYTHING, the avian flu could be hyped up to scare meat processors to disinvest...

“Chickens take 28 days to slaughter”

28 days...

Bird flu...

28 days later...

Makes sense.

Proposed: They’re cutting liabilities before the release of the ‘24 Chinese bird flu pandemic. Preserves their insurance rates and assets before the govt. orders all chicken farms closed. Actuarials don’t mess around.

Insects don’t catch bird flu.

The way the contracts are written, all the risk is on the producer.

He can’t just sell to someone else.

Though I wonder if the new ruling on non competes will factor in to this.

But this isn’t news.

Tyson has been doing it for decades.
