Mercy
There are no windows or skylights in the football field size warehouses. The chicks are intentionally kept in the dark, so they don’t burn off any calories. Because they are kept on their own feces, the ammonia burns their eyes and lungs. After a few weeks, the chicks actually go blind and have tremendous difficulty breathing. With the constant eating and the genetic engineering to grow very fast, these babies are full grown at only seven weeks old and sent to slaughter. It is a life of suffering from beginning to end and the only mercy in their short lives is the moment they are cast out of their bodies to go to a better place.
The twenty chicks that we were able to save are living a much better life. Even though there is nothing we can do to reverse genetic modification, they have room to exercise, are eating organic food, and they have Sun Chlorella Algae Super Food in their water which will boost their immune systems. For the first time in their lives, they will feel grass under their feet, fresh air on their faces, see the sun and the sky, and they will get to pick flowers, chase bugs, lay in the sunshine, and enjoy dust baths. They all have names and they are all loved, safe, happy, and alive! They will be seen as beings, not objects. And they will be accepted as family, not belongings. Please come visit us, hold one of our lap chickens, and fall in love!
