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
Jarreau Louisiana 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

was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Jarreau,
Louisiana Baby chicks are quite
adorable and
tough to withstand,
yet it's ideal to plan for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare initially
by gathering not only the
right products, yet
also the appropriate
knowledge to care for
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
easy, you simply need
to provide them with the following: A tidy as well as warm
habitat A lot of food as well
as water Interest and also
love Environment Your habitat can be a
simple box, aquarium,
feline provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and also
coverings (without loose
strings!) to start, and after a few weeks use straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid utilizing just
newspaper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can expand
misshapen. You also require
something to provide food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder and water
meal from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
cover for food as well as a pet dog bird water dispenser from an animal store. Likewise, as the chicks grow older you can introduce a perch
into the habitat to obtain them
educated on perching. Warmth To
maintain your chicks heat you need to
give them with a warmth resource.
This could be as easy as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style light from a
hardware store, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb likewise function effectively (my
recommendation). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could use
up to 2 months). The recently
hatched require a temperature
in between 90 and 100 levels,
as well as every week this could
be lowered by
about 5 levels approximately. The warmth source must get on simply one side of the cage
to permit chicks a range of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermostat- if they are hiding in the
contrary corner of your heat
lamp, you need to
decrease the temperature level. If
they are surrounding each other under the
warmth (not merely curling up),
you should add some warmth.
House cleaning
Cleanliness is essential as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make certain to change
the bed linens
typically as well as
always give tidy
food as well as water Food and also water.
Chicks expand really quick
which needs plenty of clean
food and water. Supply
enough at all times and also check
usually to
stop thirsty and
hungry chicks. Chick food is various compared
to adult chicken food, and also it can be found in both medicated and non-medicated selections. Feed chick food for the
first two months, after that
switch to a raiser food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for another 2 months,
and after that to a somewhat
lower healthy protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have levels). Dirt Some chicks prefer to obtain a head start on taking
dirt bathrooms, while others will not use 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.
Focus as well as love There are a
few advantages to spending time with your chicks. Firstly, they will probably bond with you and
not flee as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily as well as
enjoy their habits, you could
capture ailment or various
other issues earlier. Watch out for wheezing, hopping, or
other unhealthy
indicators. Make sure to
additionally consider
their poop, as diarrhea can lead
to matted feathers and blocked cloaca.
Last but not least, it is important to keep an eye out for social problems, such as the
smallest chick obtaining picked
on. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are currently fully feathered
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety of your home
and move outside into a cage. Look into our

regarding coops and
appropriate coop environments.
