Antibiotic Use in the Poultry Industry

Antibiotic use in poultry production has been very beneficial in enhancing bird health. To help provide insight into the current and future use of antibiotics in poultry, U.S. Poultry & Egg Association (USPOULTRY) is releasing a new video. The video features two noted experts, Dr. Randy Singer, Professor of Epidemiology, Department of Veterinary and Biomedical Medicine, University of Minnesota, and Dr. Charles Hofacre, Professor, Poultry Diagnostic and Research Center, Department of Population Health, University of Georgia.
Dr. Singer and Dr. Hofacre provide information on why antibiotics are given to poultry, how antibiotics are provided, how the decision is made to treat with antibiotics, how antibiotic use in poultry affects antibiotic resistance in foodborne pathogens, how flocks raised without antibiotics are treated if they get sick, the difference between medically and non-medically important antibiotics, and the future changes for antibiotic usage in poultry production.

It is well known that chickens are kept in overcrowded houses. Also when the package says cage free eggs, they are not in cages but kept in metal building so cramped together. So it ways you are mislead

It's true that some chickens will become sick and need antibiotics, but most wont if proper practices are maintained. This guy makes it look like they keep these chickens in populations that aren't over crowded but this is false advertising! Antibiotic fed chickens are usually kept in quarters so small they can't even spread their wings. This is why disease spreads so rampant and antibiotics are needed.

[@angelaboesche]

I feel this will be asked so I'm going to say it: The chickens are in an awkward growth stage, that's why they look like they have bald patches

[@googull2201]

thats bullshit. youre a liar or youre an idiot. They are sick chickens because they were given antibiotics and bred to be too large.
