[@LindaCasey]

We can start by not eating them OR their eggs (unless they live out a natural life) .. we can also do the same thing for the rest of the animals of the kill list. (Yes, I'm vegan)

[@iasked2313]

I'am a meat eater and i'am telling you america is fcked up both mentally and practically, in almost every country they eat meat and also respect the animals for example they train dogs to protect the hoard of sheeps or goats and everyday walking them towards grassy areas mountains or plains until the man or man who keeps them take a break then going again till before sunset, even myself had chickens if one of them was favourite for me i would literally feed her other chickens when they grow well before they age that's it idk what's hard about consuming the fact that they're made for human to be eaten and also respected

[@asleepyb0i400]

On a separate note, I want to add that Cornish cross chickens (the breed Henrietta was) are bred to be meat birds. As a result, they rarely live to adulthood due to their hearts being too weak to support their bodies. The fact that Henrietta lived to be a year old shows that she was so unbelievably loved by her people, and they did everything they could to make her short life wonderful.

[@westaussie965]

Meat eating makes people nasty🤷🏼‍♀️

[@karinasan7825]

Not everyone can sustain being a vegetarian, that's understandable but I believe cruel farming methods should change. Just because these animals will be slaughtered doesn't mean that these animals don't deserve being treated with love, respect and a proper healthy life and diet. As a person, seeing another being treated so cruelly breaks my heart. But if you are like many other commenters, that simply see this as the norm or simply don't care for another being's welfare...then I say this to you.... Think of it this way. If the animal is shut in a place with no sunlight, isn't allowed to roam free, is allowed to be diseased, allowed to fester in their own and other chicken’s excrement and isn't given a proper well balanced meal... and instead is just given fatty corn based chicken feed … That literally affects you too and maybe since it affects you as well ..then you too would want an end to cruel farming practices because guess what …. A chicken with no sunlight can’t produce that vitamin D they would naturally produce due to lack of sun exposure … A chicken that can't roam can't eat those bugs, worms and other vitamin rich critters …which would provide an abundance of diverse nutrients … A chicken allowed to get hurt, diseased and that festers in their own excrement means that you may be eating a sick, hurt, unhealthy chicken that was in disgusting conditions …which you are not consuming …. A chicken that lacks a diverse meal and only eats corn based meals …is fatter and has less nutrient rich content than it could have …. All this to say that if you just see this poor creature as just a product then shouldn't you as the paying consumer be enraged that you are paying for a possibly inferior product, that is less nutrient rich than it could be..that at some point in its product life was around excrement …..that if diseased could also make you sick ….. Don’t you agree that we would want to pay for a product that is clean at all stages, is the most nutrient rich and nutrient diverse it can be? ………….I think we can both agree on that

[@k.s.k.7721]

The reason factory farms exist is consumers refuse to pay for the costs of raising animals outdoors and humanely. We want cheap food year round. The quickest way to change things is to spend your money ONLY at stores that offer pasture-raised meat - trust me, it works every time.

[@gertrudewest4535]

If you have cats and dogs, this is a huge reason why they exist.

[@emanuelrodriguez6822]

The way to end this is to STOP HUMAN PROCREATION. Humans need to eat animal products to stay alive. If people know this and decide to bring more humans the demand for meat keeps growing so if we want it to cease to exist then we must stop making more humans. You don't do anyone a favor when you choose to procreate. It's absolutely selfish and all around destructive.

[@englishatheart]

@@k.s.k.7721 Guess what? Many many people cannot afford to shop any differently. The only way to truly solve the problem is for all humans to give up meat or for money to be eliminated so everyone, regardless of their financial sitation, has access to "humanely" (there really is no such thing) treated dead animals. And, in case you're one of those ignorant twats that thinks people can simply get "better jobs," there are literally more humans than there are jobs, let alone well-paying jobs. It is literally impossible for every single person to get a well-paying job. And since businesses are too greedy to pay every employee a livable wage that would allow them to afford more expensive food, and since humans have been forced to rely on having money to survive, people do what they have to do.

We are a cruel race and this child, an angel

Years ago I had pet chickens and pet roosters. It was the best time of my life

You made a grown man 😢 this gift you gave to yourself, and to your daughter, I have no doubt has imprinted a certain kind of love and kindness and empathy that will impact not only your daughter, but will have an impact on many people along her journey in life, and it will be for the better of man kind, for she has received a gift that cannot be bought, and she has made the most of this gift, in the best possible way, and in doing so, others who encounter this young lady, will receive a gift, that in some way will be a blessing to their life as well, and so a little kindness goes a long way, for both the giver and the receiver 😌

One of the sweetest stories I’ve ever read. Thank you for sharing.

I inherited my mother-n-laws chickens. They became pets. I have lost 2 of the 3. I didn't want Holly to be alone, so I was given a rooster, Memphis, and raised 3 more baby chics...I was not planning on being a bird momma, but feel joy every time the run to meet me.

This is sweet. The child is obviously influenced by very compassionate parents as it clearly shows. Love that robo-surf 😂.

What an absolutely wonderful story! My very best friend is also my rescue chicken. They were 2, but Rylle did not make it and so Rosa became the most spoiled chicken in Denmark. Breed for exagerated egg-laying, so she is soon going to leave me too. But I have the exact same fun and joy as you. A great big special Rosa-cuddle for Andrea😘

Im so happy they did that for the chicken. Ive got 11 chickens like that and 2 ducks, and they are a lot of work but it is so worth it.

So wholesome, and yet so sad how Henrietta’s siblings were gone so young. At least she lived a full life for them.

[@granitemoss1451]

Bless this woman for doing all she did for these creatures.

[@zebralady347]

What a beautiful story, it makes me want my chicken even more now. 🥰

Receiving and giving love from any life form no matter how long you're on this earth. It matters.
