Closed petition Ban the culling of chicks in the poultry industry

Closed on

Unwanted male chicks are culled, including by shredding and gassing. This is inhumane and wrong, and should be banned.

Chicks are sentient creatures, protected by animal cruelty laws, and the Government should ban this inhumane practice.
