"No kill"... yeah they may not shred male chicks, but come on. The hens are still slaughtered at a fraction of their natural lifetime, when they are done efficiently laying eggs.
> An estimated 4-6 billion male chicks are slaughtered globally every year because they serve no economic purpose.

Seems like a worthwhile goal to prevent this...

Went vegan because my kidneys started to fail. It feels good knowing I don't pay for people to kill animals for me anymore.

I used to find it so hard to go vegan because I loved the taste of meat. Well, now I have no choice.

This is great and I only wish I could contribute in a meaningful way to end unnecessary suffering
