When fully grown they are vicious and can give you some very bad wounds. I speak from experience!!My family grow 9000 at a time in many warm clean and well ventilated sheds with very few casualties. Why ill treat your stock ?You are the one who will loose out as any bird not up to perfect state of health will not be acceptable and you will not get paid. Some of these activists don't have a clue .Don't get me wrong there are poor growers but not only do their animals suffer ultimately they will go out of business, so their loss!!!
