Australian Meat Chickens – the Facts

Recent consumer research that the ACMF conducted earlier this year clearly showed that many myths and misconceptions persist about the way meat chickens are housed and looked after in Australia. Chook Chat blog this month therefore provides a timely reminder of some of the key facts about Australian meat chickens.  The blog looks at the facts that in visual depictions and in words meat chickens are most often misrepresented.

'Chook Chat' is the blog for the Australian Chicken Meat Industry, and this month’s post is by Executive Director and blogger Dr Vivien Kite.
