US chicken companies pioneered restricting sleep to keep birds eating around the clock.

A new study (Li et al., 2026) recommends giving chickens just 2 hours of darkness nightly to maximize the time they spend eating. The study and photo are Chinese.

We know chickens have far better hapiness with 7–8 hours of darkness to sleep.

But they eat more when they are sleep restricted.

    Nope, only those who have a suspicious preoccupation with arguing against vegans specifically, especially when their arguments are cartoonishly dumb and aimed directly at demonizing the very people who are just trying to make the world less cruel.

      Cartoonishly dumb arguments should be easily demonstrated false. I may be the evil and corrupted by industries, but demonstrating them false would be useful if some people read us and do not know. Claiming them dumb isn’t an argument.

      I do not see how vegans try to make the world less cruel ; as far as I know, welfarist are those who try to reduce crualty. Vegan stand on a moral position of purety which claim to use the good means regardless of the consequences.

      I evilishly defend that consequences matter, and that we would better get our hands dirty if it allows better consequences.

        I can generate random words too. get out of hand drawing a blank in the long run no pain no gain. it’s a piece of cake, step up your game, rock the boat to give someone the cold shoulder passing the buck. devil’s advocate.

            My best arguments are reserved for people who genuinely want to discuss things in good faith. Your sealioning is so formulaic I’m not even sure you’re a human.

            Shit comments get shit comments. 🖖

              If those who disagree with you are paid to be part of a conspiracy rather than genuinely discussing points, it means you reserve your arguments for those who agree with you and do not need them?

              I don’t understand neither your reaction nor your point of view. Or is veganism something you live as a religion? Something you want to believe by faith regardless of how rational it is?

              If your only arguments for your cause are attacks such as “not human”, “paid by industry” and such, you probably harm it more than I do by attacking it.

              If you check other comments you will find some vegans who argument and stand their position. I would really advice you to take inspiration from them…
