The good thing to come out of this will be people won't be eating so much poultry so less birds will have to live the awful life in a factory farm.
Thing is not eating so much poultry doesn't support those who are producing poultry in a free range organic fashion. Hope those guys (and gals) don't suffer too much through this....

Just makes me look forward to the time when I have a big enough garden and enough time to keep my own chickens that can live happy chicken lives, doing chickeny things all day everyday and I can have guilt free eggs and maybe if I'm brave the occasional older but more flavoursome bird on the table............
