    Humane handling of poultry involves practices that prioritize the welfare of the birds throughout their lives, from farming to processing. Key principles include:

    1. Housing and Environment: Providing adequate space, clean bedding, and appropriate lighting to minimize stress.

    2. Nutrition and Health: Ensuring access to a balanced diet and regular health checks to prevent disease and promote well-being.

    3. Handling Techniques: Training staff to handle birds gently, using calm movements and avoiding rough treatment to reduce fear and stress.

    4. Transportation: Ensuring that transport conditions minimize stress, including appropriate vehicle design and climate control.

    5. Processing Practices: Implementing humane slaughter methods, such as stunning, to reduce suffering before death.

    6. Monitoring and Compliance Regularly assessing animal welfare practices and adhering to established guidelines and regulations.

    Adopting these practices can help ensure the humane treatment of poultry throughout their lives.
