Answers:
Normal Slaughter
The animal is stunned so it feels no pain!. The head is chopped off causing instantaneous death
The animal is butchered as needed!.

Kosher or Halal
The neck is sliced in a single swipe from the front but the spinal chord is kept in tact!. The animal feels pain for about 3 second before it passes out due to sudden loss of blood!.
The blood is drained!. For Kosher, it is drained on salt!. After the blood has drained, the spinal chord is cut separating the head!.
After the blood has drained the animal is butchered!. For Kosher meat Sciatic vein has to be removed which is time consuming so the hind of the animal is sold as Halal meat

Now coming to specifics in your query!.
1!. Animal feels no pain in conventional slaughtering!. Animal feels pain for about 3 second when Halal or Kosher!.
2!. The animal is always supposed to be healthy alive and disease free before slaughter!. In the olden days, it was still possible that the animal suffered from undetected blood born diseases!. So both the Kosher and Halal required to drain the blood!.
Kosher or Halal meat are no better than normal slaughtered meat!. Some people like the taste of blood drained meat!. Regular slaughter meats are higher in some nutrients such as Iron than the blood drained meats!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Depends!. I hear they shoot cows in the head with bolts, they send chickens through a throat cutting machine, not sure how they kill pigs, but they do hang them all to let he blood out!. Halal and Kosher must be cut at a certain spot in the neck ONLY or else it will not be halal or kosher to eat!. As I understand it is more humane and quick and doesn't allow the release of certain chemicals into the meat when an animal is scared or stressed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You don't wanna know, besides for these animals killing in much better than living, you should see they way that producer deal with these poor animals Www@FoodAQ@Com
