US chicken companies pioneered restricting sleep to keep birds eating around the clock.
A new study (Li et al., 2026) recommends giving chickens just 2 hours of darkness nightly to maximize the time they spend eating. The study and photo are Chinese.

But they eat more and grow faster when they are sleep deprived.



How fast do you shovel down your food? You should enjoy it some more … oh, right, I’d probably also would want it to be over quickly if I had to eat vegan.

Hey, I don’t discriminate. I eat all the kingdoms of life!
any archea in that diet?
Probably, I have some in my mouth right now!
