The poultry industry in France has until the end of 2022 to stop the culling of day-old male chicks, which affects up to 50 million chicks in France each year. Farmers and producers will now need to employ alternative methods to ensure that male chicks are never born in the first place.

The world has gone woke.   Maybe the growers should just ship the male chicks to the legislators' homes.

That's a big thing here in the US too.  I've read that they are working on that problem because are horrified at all the little peeps getting killed.
