Caged Chickens Should Be Banned

 We are learning to structure speeches.
I found it hard to keep up and at the same time have good information.
I didn't find anything easy.

How would you feel if you cooped up all you live in a cage no bigger than an A4 piece of paper? Well, caged chickens go through egg-xactly that. Yes, they have cage no bigger than an A4 piece of paper, they get diseases, they can’t act like a normal chicken and they get absolutely no vitamin D. One of the main reasons that caged chickens should be banned is that there are WAY too much-caged chickens. One battery hen shed may contain as many as 45,000 hens. 82% of the 3.2 million hens that produce eggs are caged!


Another reason is that chickens can get diseased. The fatty liver syndrome is a disease only chickens; mainly caged, get. One of the causes is thought to be stress. The chickens inside the cage are so cooped up they get stress and get this disease. Another disease is rickets. Rickets is a brittle bone disease. This is caused by the lack of vitamin D. Vitamin D is from the sun. As the chickens are in the tiny space they get absolutely no sun. So if a chicken nudges them, their bone would break. 


The last reason is that they can’t act like a normal chicken. They can’t stretch their wings, they can’t scuff around in dirt. How would you feel if you couldn’t act like a human? It would be a horrible, horrible life. This is why I think that caged chickens should be banned because they get diseased, they get cooped up, and they are not able to act like a normal chicken.
