Chickens are packed tightly into massive sheds and given antibiotics and other rugs to keep them alive. The conditions that they are forced to live in would normally, under any other circumstance kill them. They gain weight at such a rapid rate that they are often unable to support themselves. The large amounts of fecal matter known to be produced by these mass farms add pollutants to the ground and water. About seven weeks after chickens are born they are taken to a slaughterhouse where they are killed by being upside down and having their necks slit. The USDA conducted a study of broiler chicken carcasses and discovered that more than 99% of them had detectable amounts of E. coli, which is found in fecies and intestinal tracts.
