Because of bird flu and other infectious diseases, where the whole flock is ordered to be killed off, many "chicken farmers" would turn off the fans of their industrial hen houses and chicken coops (chickens grown for slaughter), and let the chickens die a slow death from heat stress. This is considered "unethical" even in this industry, and may have legal consequences in some jurisdictions. Still many chicken farmers use this method, and since they don't have any chicken advocates hanging around, they get away with it.
