This template gives links to both egg laying chickens and meat chickens, in a wide variety of husbandry systems, and a mixture of the reasons for their being farmed. As a consequence, I feel it is confusing to the non-specialist reader. Perhaps it should be split into two templates, one for egg laying hens (e.g. below) and another for meat chickens.
