I'd just like to point out that killing chickens for food is a very recent development. Chickens are usually egg factories. Only the (evil) modern industrial practices made chicken meat an viable food source.

For thousands of years, a number of different kinds of chicken have been eaten across most of the Eastern hemisphere, including capons, pullets, and hens. It was one of the basic ingredients in blancmange, a stew usually consisting of chicken and fried onions cooked in milk and seasoned with spices and sugar. In the United States in the 1800s, chicken was more expensive than other meats and it was sought by the rich, but by no means does this make meat-birds a novelty of CAFOs.
