Samantha Ronson Points Out How Odd It Is That We Care More About Chickens Than Humans
Okay, so, my friend Trish keeps talking about this book called Skinny Bitch, basically about how you have to be all vegan and shit to truly be healthy, and she’s like, “Listen, Beet, I don’t think you should read it unless you’re ready to be vegan. It’s the kind of thing you can’t unread.” And I went a few months without reading it, but then last night I gave in and bought it and I’m about halfway through, and I think I have to be vegan now. The poor animals! It’s SO AWFUL how they’re treated — I just can’t be part of anything that encourages that industry. I just think of anyone doing that to Leo or the kitties and it makes me so angry! And Californians seem to understand those horrors — they passed an animal-rights initiative on Tuesday, while revoking the rights of gay couples to marry.
Samantha Ronson sums it up nicely on :
2 steps forward….. 2 steps back
i guess people care more about farm animals than they do their fellow man, that’s really sad to me.
yes, i am glad that the chickens will have more room and better conditions as they wait to die, but i just think it’s frightening that people show more compassion for tomorrow’s dinner than for the chef.
yup, miss piggy and chicken little may rest easy, but gay people in florida and california can no longer get married and gay couples in arkansas can’t adopt children. g-d forbid a loving family (regardless of sexual orientation) give a needy child a home! there aren’t children out there in dire need of love and shelter, no this country is thriving and no child is in need.
oh well, i guess one out of four ain’t bad!
You tell ’em, Sam!

Benton, Arkansas
Quantity - you must order a certain number of chicks. Typically hatcheries
will require you buy a minimum of 25 chicks at a time. The number is
necessary for the chicks survival during shipping. All 25 chicks are put
in one small box without heat. They are crowded in the box and produce
enough body heat to arrive in good shape. * The wait - If you choose to
buy chicks from a feed store you will have them the same day but if you
choose to go with a hatchery you have to wait until they are ready to ship
and then wait for the chicks to arrive. Ordering baby chicks online in
Benton Arkansas is easy and has always been a very pleasant
experience of me. It can be a little frustrating waiting for the chicks
but it's so worth the wait. When the post office calls and you hear all
those little "cheeps" or "chirps" in the background you'll know the wait
was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Benton,
Arkansas Baby chicks are very
cute as well as
hard to withstand,
however it's ideal to plan for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare first
by compiling not only the
correct materials, but
likewise the correct
expertise to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
straightforward, you simply should supply them with the following: A
clean and also cozy
habitat Plenty of food and also water Interest as well as
love Environment Your habitat could be a straightforward box, aquarium,
cat service provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (without any loose
strings!) to begin, and after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid utilizing only
paper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could expand
malformed. You likewise require
something to dish out food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
dish from the feed store, or a pickle jar
lid for food and also a pet dog bird water dispenser from a
pet dog store. Additionally, as the chicks age you can introduce a perch
right into the environment to get them
educated on setting down. Heat To
maintain your chicks heat you should
offer them with a warmth source.
This can be as simple as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from a
hardware store, or an infrared reptile warmth
bulb additionally work effectively (my
recommendation). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
changed with feathers (which could take up to two months). The newly
hatched out require a temperature level
between 90 and 100 degrees,
and each week this can
be reduced by
around 5 degrees or
so. The heat source must get on merely one side of the cage
to enable chicks an array of
temperatures. The chicks are your ideal
thermometer- if they are concealing in the
opposite edge of your warmth
lamp, you have to
lower the temperature. If
they are surrounding each various other under the
heat (not simply curling up),
you have to include some warmth.
Home cleaning
Sanitation is crucial and also it keeps your chicks healthy. Make certain to change
the bed linen
commonly and
constantly provide clean
food as well as water Food as well as water.
Chicks expand really quickly
which calls for plenty of tidy
food and water. Give
sufficient whatsoever times and also check
usually to avoid dehydrated as well as
starving chicks. Chick food is different compared
to adult chicken food, and it can be found in both medicated as well as non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
very first two months, then
change to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for an additional 2 months,
and afterwards to a somewhat
lower healthy protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Soil Some chicks like to obtain a running start on taking
dust baths, while others won't occupy that activity till they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
enclosure, introduce a tray of sand or
filth for them to bathe in.
Attention as well as love There are a couple of benefits to spending time with your chicks. Firstly, they will probably bond with you as well as
not flee as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and also
see their actions, you can
catch health problem or various
other issues earlier. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, hopping, or
other unhealthy
signs. Be sure to
likewise check out
their poop, as diarrhea could bring about matted plumes as well
as clogged cloaca.
Last but not least, it is necessary to watch out for social concerns, such as the
tiniest chick getting teased. Vacant nest disorder So your
chicks are now fully feathered
and its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your home
and relocate outside right into a cage. Have a look at our
part on chicken coops to learn more
about coops and also
correct coop environments.
