I didn't say factory farms, but that seems very difficult for some people to understand. I said insanely messed up industrial chicken industry. The kind where you just leave your dead chickens to rot next to your live chickens, where you don't give a shit about disease and contaminants "because we'll clean the eggs later", where you don't maintain a minimal sanitary level because "that just costs money", etc.

You can run a chicken battery with perfectly healthy chickens, plenty of light, hen retirement once their production drops below profitable instead of making them "lay until they drop dead", etc.
