US chicken companies pioneered restricting sleep to keep birds eating around the clock.
A new study (Li et al., 2026) recommends giving chickens just 2 hours of darkness nightly to maximize the time they spend eating. The study and photo are Chinese.
We know chickens have far better hapiness with 7–8 hours of darkness to sleep.
But they eat more and grow faster when they are sleep deprived.
Ah, so you give them a good night of sleep right before you murder them so you can spoil your tastebuds.
I mean, yeah, this is what the post and the comment thread is about… Wtf xd
It’s moralwashing; justifying eating animals because you give them a good night’s sleep.
I’m not moral washing, I am discussing the topic of the thread/picture. Or maybe you answered the wrong comment?
