Caged Chickens Should Be Banned

In Room 1 We have been doing writing. I found it challenging to find facts about why chickens should be banned. Some facts were really sad so i didn't put them in. I enjoyed writing the facts down. Next time i would try find more facts to put in.

Do you want to be in a cage that is not so bigger than an A4 piece of paper and only 40cm high?Well this is why i think they should be banned. They can’t spread their wings, have a dust bath or exercise properly. The chickens spend their time on wire floors which hurts their feet and give them sores. They are living in cramped cages with no exercise or bathing that leads to serious bone and muscle weakness. Some chickens get picked on and can’t escape the bullies because of the cramped cages. Newborn chickens will never see their mothers. Not long after being born the males and females are separated. The females go to live in a tiny cramped wire cage and the males are killed. The females are kept for 2 years then killed off as well as they don't lay many eggs after this. Chickens are smart, social and sensitive animals who deserve a much better life than this. So don’t just buy the eggs because there cheap.
