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!

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
Caneyville Kentucky 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 Caneyville,
Kentucky Baby chicks are very
adorable and
tough to withstand,
however it's best to plan for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare initially
by gathering not only the
correct products, yet
also the appropriate
knowledge to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
straightforward, you merely need
to supply them with the following: A
clean as well as cozy
environment Plenty of food and also water Attention as well as
love Environment Your environment could be a basic box, aquarium,
cat carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and
blankets (without any loose
strings!) to begin, as well as after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over paper.
Note: Avoid making use of only
newspaper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can expand
malformed. You additionally require
something to serve up food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
dish from the feed shop, or a pickle container
cover for food as well as an animal bird water dispenser from a family pet store. Likewise, as the chicks age you can present a perch
into the habitat to obtain them
trained on setting down. Heat To
maintain your chicks warm you need to
provide them with a heat resource.
This could be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style lamp from an equipment shop, or an infrared reptile warmth
bulb likewise work extremely well (my
referral). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 up until their downy fluff is
replaced with plumes (which can take up to two months). The recently
hatched need a temperature level
between 90 and also 100 degrees,
and every week this can
be decreased by
roughly 5 levels or
so. The warmth resource must get on just one side of the cage
to allow chicks a variety of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
other corner of your warmth
lamp, you have to
decrease the temperature. If
they are smothering each various other under the
heat (not just curling up),
you have to add some warmth.
Home cleaning
Tidiness is essential and also it keeps your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make sure to transform
the bedding
typically and
consistently provide clean
food and water Food and also water.
Chicks grow very fast
which requires a lot of tidy
food as well as water. Supply
enough in any way times and examine
commonly to
stop thirsty and
starving chicks. Chick food is different compared
to adult chicken food, and it can be found in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
first 2 months, then
switch to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for one more 2 months,
and then to a slightly
lower healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks prefer to get a running start on taking
dirt bathrooms, while others won't take
up that activity up until they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
unit, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to bathe in.
Attention and also love There are a couple of benefits to spending quality time with your chicks. Firstly, they will most
likely bond with you as well as
not flee as adults. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and also
watch their behavior, you can
capture disease or various
other troubles earlier. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, limping, or
other harmful
signs. Make certain to
likewise look at
their poop, as diarrhea can cause matted plumes as well
as obstructed cloaca.
Lastly, it is essential to keep an eye out for social concerns, such as the
smallest chick getting picked
on. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently completely feathery
and also its time for them to leave the
safety of your residence
and move outside into a cage. Check out our
section on chicken coops for more information
about cages and also
appropriate coop environments.
