Animal Lovers Shouldn’t Eat At Chick-fil-A

Christian Animal  Ethics reports Chick-fil-A "chickens are bred to grow so large, so quickly, that many of them suffer crippling leg deformities. Because their breasts grow abnormally large while their skeletons and other organs lag behind, their legs often break under the weight of their own bodies."

Chickens at Chick-fil-A "factory farm suppliers don’t see the light of day or receive any exercise. Most have trouble breathing in the overcrowded, filthy conditions while many others suffer heart failure and chronic pain."

To keep Chick-fil-A "chickens eating and growing as much as possible, their sleep is restricted by keeping the interior lights of the warehouses illuminated at almost all times."


Many Chick-fil-A "chickens die on the warehouse floor, their bodies rotting among the other chickens, adding to the overall stress and unhygienic conditions."

.This last situation discourages me  from  eating  at Chick-fil-A.   Such conditions encourage diseases that chickens can transmit to humans like the urinary tract infection causing intestinal bacterium Enterococcus faecalis and salmonella.
