Article is far too specific a subject to be a separate article, and merging would be inappropriate as it's content has significant overlap with Culling and Chicken.

there seem to be distinct sources for it. discuss a merge

[edit] AVMA

How can the American Veterinary Medical Association be both opposed to and approve of this device at the same time?

Why the hell are people sick enough to use this!?!? Mitternacht90 21:37, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Ahh, the byproducts of modern society.Thursday Postal 23:12, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Contesting Speedy Tag

This doesn't look like a speedyable article to me. The nominator objects to the naming, believing it to be a neologism, and while that's potentially grist for AFD, it's not a speedyable offense. This isn't a bad article; it's got verifiable content and citations, and at most should be re-named to something more topical, if such a name can be found. -Colin Kimbrell 16:51, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

I've moved the page anyway since baby is redundant. jimfbleak 16:53, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Needs a cleanup

This article seems a bit 'all over the place'. I am going to try to fix it up a bit.Darkcraft 11:40, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

I would like to add, I am not an expert on this subject, and I am pro-animal rights, so I may be slightly biased.Darkcraft 11:57, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

I like this section:

Chicks which are not intended for rearing shall be killed as soon as possible and in any case before they are 72 hours old.
Chicks should be killed by using a mechanically operated apparatus approved for this purpose in accordance with national legislation, designed and operated in such a way as to ensure that all chicks are killed immediately even if they are handled in large numbers.
Gases or gas mixtures may only be used where the procedure is approved under national legislation. Measures shall be taken to ensure rapid death and to avoid suffocation under other birds by putting birds in a single layer and monitoring gas concentrations.
To kill any living embryos instantaneously, all hatchery waste shall be treated without delay using the mechanical apparatus mentioned above or any living embryo must be killed without delay.

but without references to the official body that endorses those particular practices, I don't believe it can be included in the article. If someone could help me with finding a reference or something, I would appreciate it.Darkcraft 12:31, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What the...?

Everything below 'see also' is not showing up for me in the main article, but is there on the 'edit' page. What is going on? Maybe my browser is just being silly. Oh well I was almost finished anyway, I will come back tomorrow and see if this problem has fixed itself.Darkcraft 12:50, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah I agree, but unfortunatly, the problem didn't fix itself. I will try to tell the people at the village pump what is going on with this "bug" and stuff. Best of luck! --PrestonH 02:52, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

It's fixed! PrestonH 03:30, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks :D Darkcraft 13:14, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Broken Reference Link

The third References link, "http://www.upc-online.org/battery_hens/42203woodchipper.htm/" is malformed. With the trailing slash, the target page comes up blank. I am unable to edit the references (clicking "Edit" gives me a blank References section). Could someone with the ability to edit references please trim this trailing slash? Thank you :-) TTK 17:59, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Nice work spotting that. Even getting rid of the trailing slash for me didn't fix it though. Maybe the site is down or something. I found a similar link anyway, so I will replace it with that.Darkcraft 11:32, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Oh, nevermind, someone has already fixed it and got that link working. Good work =D Darkcraft 11:33, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
