Shockingly, Ideal Poultry Breeding Farms uses baby chicks as
packing filler, packing peanuts, so that the birds who are actually
ordered can stay warm. Seemingly, baby chicks are a disposable
commodity, who can be used and abused without legal consequences
because chickens are not protected by the Federal Animal Welfare Act
in the United States.

It's indeed shocking, horrifying and heart-breaking that God's
creatures, in this case babies!, are treated as if they deserved pain,
suffering and death. We must not forget that when we cause suffering
to any creature, we are hurting ourselves in the process. The
desensitization that humanity has undergone in order to turn other
creatures into commodities has brought many negative consequences that
unfortunately we currently face and will continue to do so until we
show respect, reverence and compassion to all forms of life.
