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
Cimarron New Mexico 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 Cimarron,
New Mexico Baby chicks are quite
adorable and also
tough to withstand,
however it's best to prepare for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare first
by gathering not just the
correct products, however
also the appropriate
expertise to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is reasonably
basic, you just need
to supply them with the following: A tidy and also warm
habitat A lot of food as well
as water Focus and
love Environment Your habitat could be a straightforward box, aquarium,
pet cat carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels as well as
blankets (without any loosened
strings!) to start, as well as after a few weeks utilize straw over paper.
Note: Avoid using just
paper or other sandal
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could grow
malformed. You also require
something to dish out food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed shop, or a pickle jar
cover for food as well as a family
pet bird water dispenser from a
pet dog store. Also, as the chicks age you can present a perch
right into the environment to get them
educated on setting down. Heat To
maintain your chicks warm you have to
give them with a warmth source.
This could be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp design lamp from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile heat
light bulb also function very
well (my
suggestion). Chicks need this
heat 24/7 till their downy fluff is
replaced with plumes (which could take up to two months). The recently
hatched out need a temperature level
in between 90 as well as 100 levels,
and weekly this can
be minimized by
roughly 5 levels approximately. The heat source should get on simply one side of the cage
to allow chicks an array of
temperatures. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
other corner of your warmth
light, you should
lower the temperature. If
they are surrounding each other under the
warmth (not just snuggling),
you have to put some heat.
Housekeeping
Sanitation is essential and it maintains your chicks healthy. Make sure to alter
the bedding
usually and also
constantly give tidy
food and water Food as well as water.
Chicks expand quite quickly
which calls for lots of clean
food and water. Offer
enough whatsoever times as well
as check
frequently to prevent dehydrated as well as
hungry chicks. Chick food is different than grown-up chicken food, and it is available in both medicated as well as non-medicated ranges. Feed chick food for the
very first 2 months, after that
switch over to a raiser food (~ 17 %
protein) for an additional 2 months,
and then to a somewhat
lower healthy protein feed or a level feed
(if you have levels). Soil Some chicks want
to obtain a running start on taking
dirt baths, while others won't take
up that task up until they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
enclosure, introduce a tray of sand or
dust for them to wash in.
Interest and love There are a
few advantages to spending quality time with your chicks. First of all, they will most
likely bond with you and
not escape as adults. Second, if you
examine your chicks daily and also
enjoy their behavior, you could
capture disease or various
other issues previously. Watch out for hissing, limping, or
various other unhealthy
indications. Make certain to
likewise consider
their poop, as looseness of the bowels could cause matted plumes and also clogged up cloaca.
Finally, it is essential to look out
for social concerns, such as the
smallest chick getting badgered. Vacant nest disorder So your
chicks are now fully feathered
as well as its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your residence
as well as relocate outside into a
coop. Check out our
section on chicken cages to learn more
regarding cages and also
appropriate coop environments.
