The life cycle of a chicken (from chick to full grown) is supposed to be around 80 days. Manufacturers have it down to around 46.
This is why I switched to organic chicken last year, and just eat less of it.
@ctl74: organic means less than squat in the poultry industry. Only that at the time of processing they are free of any antibiotics or hormones..the food is pulled a couple of days before being picked up..viola! You suddenly have a certifiable organic chicken.
You are spending more money for the same chickens.
