In the UK only female chickens are eaten.
This is because male chickens are reared for breeding so often have additives in their diet that makes their meat inedible for human consumption.
It's also a sad fact that male chicks are destroyed since they have no value in the food chain.

@PhaqueYou Pullets are just 'young hens'

@Picklebobble2 Here, what do we mean by food chain, we can always feed them to animals or leave them in the forests where some animal could feed on them.
Is the male chicken so much injected with additives that it is unsafe for animal consumption too?

@TheOrionbeltseeker .....What do you think happens when you 'feed' wild animals something they wouldn't normally eat that has been 'chemically' created ?

@Picklebobble2 They will probably die disabling the food chain further more.
so, we don't even feed them with the male chicken, right?
Which means a complete wastage?
