Exactly! But don't forget the hillbillies. We have our fair share of those as well, just like W. Mass. That's where DSD lives, right?

In the movie it shows them cutting off the chickens beaks this is done to stop them killing each other.When i was younger my friend would always tell me stories about chickens who would get injured in a fight or have sores and the other chickens would slowly pick at the wound until it died. now thats a horibble way to go slowly being picked at bit by bit.

Mrs. Totem used to work at a turkey farm/processing plant. She tells me they don't cut the beaks off, they burn them off. Grab the chick from the assembly line, jam it's beak into a hole with electric contacts, brrzzzzZZZZT!, toss the dazed and smoking little bird down on the conveyor belt and grab the next one, ad infinitum till the plant shuts down at 5:00 pm.

It's the talons they cut off, so as to prevent them from scratching each other when fighting for food.
