[@TychoBrahe]

Europe has already figured out a solution to this, this is completely unnecessary. They developed a scanner that can quickly tell which eggs are male and which are female and can separate them, so the male eggs never hatch to begin with, they just stay un-incubated eggs. This is not just much more humane, but it is also much more cost-efficient because you don't have to incur costs for incubating, feeding, staffing, manually identifying chicken sex, incurring a 50% loss of eggs/chicks, etc. With this technology, even the greediest business owner has zero excuse to be inhumane. Europe shows a lot of leadership in animal rights, we need to learn from them.

[@FlatEarthKiller]

Imagine coming out of an egg, as a male chick, breaking your way out, expecting a mother hen, but when you come out, suddenly bad smell and bright lights shine your eyes, blinding you. Then, you are suddenly tossed into a crate, then dropped into conveyor belt, with other chicks, and thinking you’ll go to your mom, until you are dropped in a circular conveyor belt, then some guy suddenly picks you up and carelessly throws you into a grinder and five stacked macerators. You think its just a maze, but when you fall, you suddenly get smashed everywhere, from the neck to the body, to the beak to the legs, down to the butthole, you feel pain for half a second, then suddenly everything blurs for one second then blackouts. And now you are in the male landfill, sometimes with a few female chicks, but many males, unable to turn your head, hear, smell, even move your mouth muscles a single nanometer, and only faintly seeing light come after the blackout, then while your eyelids are open, you blackout again, even though your eye was open! It then turns out you are missing a body, as that body was 3 meters away from you.

[@comenterbruh353]

I am shocked at this. I'm a chicken and quail farmer and I've never even heard of such a thing. my farm is in north Cyprus and we keep all our animals until they die naturally or until they are culled for meat. our male egg layer chicks are kept for 8 weeks then sold as breeders or meat. we have learnt to determine male from female by the egg shape and its very successful. so we need not do this inhumane culling of chicks.

I think one of the other ways to solve this is to shorten supply chains. Reduce demand yes, but if you keep your own chickens locally or know someone who does, the demand can be met much more humanely, and laying hens often lay WAY more than a single family can use. (Freezing also keeps them fresh for longer and makes no difference in baking.) Shopping locally at farmer's markets is a good idea in general, too. Industrial agriculture is one of the biggest problems for the planet, and egg substitutes just shift demand to another industry focused on profits through monoculture. It's a hard issue we have to tackle together with our neighbors. Good luck out there.

[@thefineartofboredom]

Nobody disputes that chicken farming is cruel. Large scale veggie farming is not much different. Heard of insect decline? Sure, bugs are not cute and fluffy, but they are more useful for the ecosystem than any chicks. So if you want no cruelty, never ever buy anything from a large-scale producer.

I agree that this is cruel, but why is the solution on all these videos to "just stop eating them" you could buy from local farms who grow all of their products ethically. Or you could do it yourself so you know where your food comes from and know that you did everything as humanely as possible.

@@ericpark8956 typically they are sold off or raised until butchering age not thrown in grinder but I am sure some farmers out there like to make ground chick for their dogs.

[@RedSiegfried]

It's a wasteful practice because all those male chickens could be raised for food. But everyone is told that male chickens are not good to eat and for the egg farmers raising male chickens to eat is less profitable than selling eggs.

[@raygun23]

raise your own chickens, or become good friends with someone who does, and you know they’re being treated well, the eggs are also stronger and better tasting/cook better than the anemic eggs from the store.

Switzerland outlawed the use of cages and mass batteries in 1992. the EU outlawed it in 2012. sadly, chick killing continued until 2023-24 as the new scanning tech became mandatory, which means they can tell by the 9th day if the chick in the egg is female or male, leaving the male eggs unincubated or discarded. @TychoBrahe has a good post.
