Yes, some producers abuse their chickens by housing them in overcrowded cages. To compensate for this, they give sub-therapeutic doses of antibiotics which is now causing antibiotic resistance in man. In some countries, laws have been passed to increase cage space and add enrichments in the cage so that the birds can have something to explore. Not all farmers abuse there birds though.
