There have been some mortalities

Some of us are getting ill. I don’t know what’s going on, the people in wellies have taken some of the birds away. I can’t see the quiet ones any more. I don’t feel great myself, I’m getting bigger and my legs are longer but I still don’t have a perch to climb onto so I’m just sitting on the floor. I don’t like it here and I want to get out.

FACT CHECK:
In intensive broiler production, a typical mortality rate is 1% per week, compared to 0.25% in slower-growing broiler chickens which are generally reared in less intensive systems, and 0.14% per week in young laying hens.
