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
Clio Michigan 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 Clio,
Michigan Baby chicks are extremely
cute as well as
hard to withstand,
yet it's best to plan for their
arrival prior to you get them. Prepare initially
by gathering not only the
correct materials, but
additionally the appropriate
knowledge to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is fairly
basic, you just should give them with the following: A
clean and also warm
habitat A lot of food as well
as water Focus as well as
love Habitat Your habitat could be a straightforward box, aquarium,
pet cat service provider, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels as well as
coverings (without any loose
strings!) to start, as well as after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over newspaper.
Note: Avoid making use of just
paper or various other slipper
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can expand
misshapen. You also need
something to dish out food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder and also water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle container
cover for food as well as a family
pet bird water dispenser from a family pet shop. Also, as the chicks grow older you can introduce a perch
right into the environment to obtain them
trained on perching. Warmth To
keep your chicks heat you have to
offer them with a warmth source.
This could be as easy as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from a
hardware store, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb likewise function effectively (my
suggestion). Chicks need this
warmth 24/7 till their downy fluff is
changed with plumes (which could use
up to two months). The freshly
hatched out need a temperature
between 90 as well as 100 levels,
as well as each week this can
be decreased by
about 5 levels approximately. The heat source need to be on simply one side of the cage
to permit chicks a variety of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermometer- if they are hiding in the
opposite corner of your heat
light, you should
minimize the temperature level. If
they are smothering each various other under the
heat (not just snuggling),
you need to add some heat.
Housekeeping
Cleanliness is key as
well as it maintains your chicks healthy. Make sure to alter
the bed linens
usually and also
consistently give clean
food as well as water Food and water.
Chicks expand quite quickly
which needs plenty of tidy
food and also water. Provide
sufficient in any way times and also examine
frequently to prevent parched as well as
starving chicks. Chick food is various compared
to grown-up chicken food, and also it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
first 2 months, then
switch over to a raiser food (~ 17 %
protein) for an additional 2 months,
then to a somewhat
lower protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have levels). Soil Some chicks like to get a head start on taking
filth bathrooms, while others won't use up that activity till they are
older. If you have the area in your chick
enclosure, present a tray of sand or
dust for them to wash in.
Attention and also love There are a couple of advantages to spending time with your chicks. First off, they will most
likely bond with you and also
not escape as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and also
watch their actions, you could
catch illness or other issues earlier. Watch out for hissing, limping, or
various other harmful
indicators. Make sure to
likewise take a look at
their poop, as diarrhea can result in matted feathers and clogged up cloaca.
Finally, it is important to keep an eye out for social concerns, such as the
tiniest chick obtaining teased. Vacant nest disorder So your
chicks are currently totally feathered
and its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your home
and move outside right into a
coop. Check out our
area on chicken coops to read more
regarding cages as well as
proper coop environments.
