I appreciate the link to the chicken catching machine page on Gizmodo.

“Harvesting chickens by hand is back-breaking work—often called the worst job in the poultry industry.”

Thanks for validating my 44 year old memories. On reflection I recall that it was early spring, not early summer. The heat was from the bodies of thousands of chickens in a confined space, not from the outside temperature. Every couple of hours we took a brief break outside. Breathing the cool, clean northern Wisconsin air seemed a touch of heaven.
