They took one guy to court for animal cruelty as he was intentionally breaking the wings after one scratched him. I am all for free range tho. That's why I like fresh goat and deer

For me it is mostly the complete lack of flavour, there is no dark meat anymore. They don't live long enough or eat enough variety to grow any due mostly to breeding for fast growth and who gives a toss what it tastes like.

Add more flavours when cooking? I used to moslty cook chicken as a filler in dishes rich in sauce. Didn't cook it plain or roasted much. (My roasts are sub par)
