Don't they gender the eggs now? They just don't hatch the male ones.
AS far AS i know, there are experiments with identifying the gender in the egg, but it isn't practically usable on a big scale. I might be wrong, would love if someone knew more about this.
I mean shredding males to nuggets is also financially viable.
Only in a select few places. It doesn't scale super well among other potential issues
