In-ovo sexing has the potential to spare at least 300 million male chicks each year in the United States from slaughter.

    This tech should be required by law.

      Don’t drive up my food costs because you don’t like how they make the eggs.

      Turning baby chicks into dog food keeps costs low and reduces food waste.

        They grind up live baby chickens. So no.

          Every animal we eat was killed when alive. What’s your point?

            They’re not usually just tossed into meat grinders. There are some methods that are more or less humane than others.

              Seems a pretty quick way to go.

                The culling of animals for food products is a hot topic with no real solutions. Tell the vegetarian that plants communicate danger, despite the overwhelming evidence, and they’ll throw you out of the room.
