Depreciation on assets shall be charge according to the Accounting standard-6.
According to such standard, AS-6 doesn't apply to the Live stock, I.e means depreciation on live stock doesn't deal by AS-6, as well as any other provisions of Income tax or accounting standards etc... doesn't deal with the accounting of live stock.
So according to my view depreciation on live stock(assets) shall not be charge because of we can't estimate the age of the live assets as well as can't decide the rate of depreciation so at the time of death of live asset the value of the asset as per books(cost) shall be treat as loss and debit to the Profit and loss account.
The above is just my opinion not the perfect solution.
So please wait for other expert's view and suggestions they may help with any case laws or studies etc...
Keeping this as open query for other experts comments.

Yes, you can do like that, Because of any accounting standard doesn't dealing with the live stock accounting i.e means there is no particular treatment or accounting for the live stock, so you can follow what you like accounting policy.
However such policy shall be indicate by the auditor in his audit report if applicable.
