Find out what you can do to help the chickens
A chicken raised for meat is called a broiler. Today’s chickens are genetically selected to provide more meat. This genetic transformation has dramatically changed the biology and physiology of chickens. The chickens can grow four times larger than in the 1950s. Breast size has increased by 35-85% (Eating Better, 2020).
