It’s very sad. Because pieces of sh*t want to wear fur, they are tortured like that. Plus there is synthetic fur that looks exactly like the stolen skins of trapped animals. But no, ultra rich scum want to torture animals for a status symbol. I wish all foxes could be freed from their cages.
Ideally, these male chicks could be taken to an animal sanctuaries. With the scale of the industry and the rarity of farmed animal sanctuaries, it wouldn’t be possible for all of them. For the ones that can be rescued, life on a sanctuary is much better than in the wild or on a farm in a dark shed.

The vast majority of aborted fetuses are not sentient. Sentience is the ability to know oneself exists through feeling. Yet in the US, there are laws protecting insensate biological material but not sentient male chicks ground up alive in the egg industry. I see the moral value of a day old chick as far more than a 14 week fetus since the male chick has sentience and can feel pain while a 14 week old fetus cannot.
AETA is a bullshit law that was designed to slap a terror label on protected speech that was causing corporations to lose money. Good free documentary about some of the first people prosecuted under AETA below. https://tubitv.com/movies/100010873/the-animal-people
I saw this German documentary about the egg industry.
They ship the males out of country where they are raised in sheds, then sold to Africa.
I think the best solution is to not buy eggs. A good replacement is mung bean flour. It has similar nutrition and flavor, can be obtained cheaply, and spares chickens from being exploited by humans.
