Among all the domesticated animals, chickens are probably the most consumed. As an important source of meat, more than 50 billion chickens are consumed every year in the world. In addition, the average person consumes more than 160 eggs per year. . Because our demand for chicken and eggs is so great, scientists have been working to develop the “potential” of chickens – the speed of meat growth and the ability to lay eggs. In a natural state, a chicken can live for more than 6 years and lay at most dozens of eggs every year. But broilers are raised to the table in as little as six weeks, while some improved layers can lay up to 371 eggs a year—more than one a day on average. However, as we all know, killing chickens requires some tedious processes, one of which is plucking, which causes a lot of pollution and wastes water, especially when tens of billions of chickens need to be processed a year. Caption: Hairless Chicken A scientific team from Israel has thus created a chicken without feathers, which is called “hairless chicken” and looks like a dead body that has been scalded by boiling water and plucked out its feathers. Like chicken. .
