Latest Update
The number of animals being killed and factory farmed goes up when people choose to eat chicken meat.
This is why One Step For Animals advocates for everyone to examine their choices and cut chickens out of their diet. We carefully look at numbers and think about the consequences of our acts.
Take a look at this staggering account published in the Independent:
"The biggest mega-farms house more than a million chickens, 20,000 pigs or 2,000 cattle."
Everyone is welcome to take one step and reduce suffering. Intensive farming is accelerating climate change, driving species loss, emitting damaging slurry and nitrates, and causing large-scale animal suffering. Choosing chicken is not green and it is a cruel choice. It is alas too easy to dismiss this claim of cruelty because “they’re just birds” but this would mean ignoring the increasing amount of scientific evidence that birds think, feel and suffer. For more on this, we suggest this excellent piece from The Atlantic, published in March 2019.
This is the reality of chicken farming in Australia, much like everywhere else: thousands of animals being abused.
It takes more than 200 chickens to produce the same number of meals as one cow. Chickens are typically the most mistreated animals in the industry. Plant-based chicken meat is easy to find in our supermarkets and tastes awesome. Please take ONE STEP for the animals and choose animal friendly options.

April/May 2018
We will be publishing a series of interviews with individuals who have changed their diet. You can read the first here.
We have been giving out our brochures at train stations, universities, welfare rallies, and on busy streets. We’ve also been sending them to supporters in South Australia and outer suburbs of Melbourne. We have also been promoting plant-based food companies who provide substitute chicken, such as Lord of the Fries and Fry's Family Food Company in Australia.
Our Facebook supporters are starting to grow and we are getting the word out. If you’re not following us yet on Facebook, please do and share our posts around on your page or in groups - https://www.facebook.com/One-Step-For-Animals-Australia-178289569366812/.
If anyone wants to receive one or many of our brochures for free, simply let us know - [email protected]
Plenty of Australians are receptive to the message we deliver – to take one step for animals. One potent step with valuable consequences. Please read Cat’s interview here. More interviews to follow. We think they’re a great way to encourage others to think about it all.
Cheers! Vincent

Eating Chickens Isn't Green
The team recently produced a handy infographic (also see the bottom of this page) on the environmental impact of raising and slaughtering chickens. Too often, people seem to turn to chicken meat... "for the environment." Not only is this the worst possible choice one can make as far as suffering and the number of animals killed is concerned, it's also plain wrong!
Our booklet can be found here, and we will be happy to send you hard copies.
Chickens Deserve Better
Late last year, you may have heard reports that a truck carrying hundreds of chickens crashed near Geelong, Victoria. This happened not long after footage was released revealing chickens boiled alive in a Melbourne abattoir.
These sensitive individuals deserve better than this.
Please help stop these abuses. Please stop eating chickens, talk about it around you, and contact us for more info. [email protected]
Yours truly,
Vincent Berraud, One Step For Animals – Australia
