This idea that they don't deserve rights that they themselves can't fight for is just might makes right thinking and is a cornerstone of fascist thinking.
If chickens ever have rights, you argue, its because someone uses force to stop you from killing chickens. Otherwise, you have a natural right to dominate the chickens because they are powerless to defend themselves, and that powerlessness is the same reason they can't fight for your rights either
So you are just doing fascist might makes right ethics
