There are a lot of farmers that routinely feed cattle and chickens from the beginning with antibiotics. My mom said this was routine when she was a child on a family farm. And it continues today because it works - the animals grow better and larger. So now that big corporations are owning farms, why wouldn't they?
Makes me wonder if the amount of antibiotics in our food connects with gut biome issues. I would say yes.
