The footage, filmed in April, shows chickens in small wire cages, many of them grouped with the decomposing corpses of other chickens; some of the corpses were covered with maggots.

The video also included scenes of chickens being extricated from clumps and mounds of brown sludge, which PETA identified as manure.
