There's a similar program I saw o BBC3 the night before. Even though I've worked in the industry and seen it all before, I hate seeing that last few moments before an animal is killed.

I cried most of the way through esp when they gassed the baby chicks right in front of you ... definatley made me think.

I buy free range eggs anyway, but i think for an extra pound or so im going to start buying free range meat too.

Yep, saw it too.

It was very interesting to know how different chickens are bred and I think that for an extra £1 it's a small price to pay for something that's been shown some respect for the life it's had.

Although we eat chicken/meat it's not nice for an animal to be cruelly treated.
