EGGS
Male chicks will never lay eggs and are not the breed used for meat. Therefore, since they are worthless to the egg industry, these baby chicks are disposed of like trash—either suffocated to death in garbage bags and dumpsters or ground up alive in large industrial macerators. Over 300 million newborn male chicks are killed each year in the United States.
