Jeuri Live Poultry

It’s pretty hard to get on board with this place, every time I walk by I have flashbacks to those gut wrenching animal cruelty videos that get shared around by vegans and animal rights activists.
The doors are always wide open, exposing a room lined with metal walls and clucky chickens. There is also, in plain sight, a little «stable» with a half dozen goats /​donkeys /​cows standing there, in the metal room, on the border between Queens and Brooklyn, with nowhere to move.
To their credit, the employees are always washing the place and act as if there’s nothing here to be ashamed of. The other reviewer noted an overpowering stench, which hasn’t been an issue for me.
So it isn’t shady per se, it’s just really gross and depressing. It’s also genuinely making me reevaluate my eating habits.
Walking by yesterday I heard a father summarily describe it to his small daughter. «Come on, keep walking, that’s not a zoo, baby. That’s a slaughterhouse.»
If this place makes me stop eating meat I will never forgive them.

They sell live chickens. The smell is overpoweringly horrible. No matter the time of day, the smell will kill you. I hate this place with a passion.
