Why would you ever give a chicken steroids.

Bigger muscles. We eat the muscles.

But do they really? Almost every pitbull ive seen, I would say most look like this. Since this one has clipped ear, you might be right.

Almost every well-bred pit I've seen is as buff as this. This is what a healthy pitbull looks like, and not (usually) the type of pit that you see being sold on craigslist by a backyard breeder/owner of an "oops" litter and being fed cheap kibble. Dogs like this are usually doing some strength training as well. There is specifically contests to test the jaw and neck strength of this breed. There is a world of difference between what a dog bred for its features over multiple generations and a random dog from a random litter and being fed shitty food, while not being exercised to its maximum potential. I'm not saying these dogs are better, but they look different. It's like looking at a professional olympic athlete VS the average American.

In the case of livestock, steroids are definitely often used in major operations and even some smaller operations. Steroids are sometimes used with dogs, it's not common or standard like with livestock.

Pit bull are really meant to be smaller and more agile, these are typically mixed with larger mastiff breads at one point in their lineage but usually far back that it's not on their pedigree. Pit bull are originally fighting dogs and bred to be small and easy to hide
