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

experience of me. It can be a little frustrating waiting for the chicks

was worth it! How to Care for your new baby chickens in Manteo,
North Carolina Baby chicks are really
cute and
hard to stand up to,
yet it's best to plan for their
arrival prior to you obtain them. Prepare first
by compiling not only the
right materials, however
likewise the appropriate
knowledge to take care of
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
simple, you just should provide them with the following: A
clean and warm
habitat Lots of food and also water Interest and also
love Habitat Your habitat could be a basic box, aquarium,
feline provider, or guinea
porker cage. Line it with old towels and
coverings (without any loosened
strings!) to start, and after a few weeks utilize straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid utilizing only
paper or other sandal
surface areas-- or your chicks legs can grow
misshapen. You also require
something to provide food as well as
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
dish from the feed store, or a pickle container
cover for food as well as a pet bird water dispenser from a
pet dog shop. Also, as the chicks get
older you can introduce a perch
into the habitat to obtain them
trained on setting down. Warmth To
maintain your chicks warm you should
give them with a heat source.
This can 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 also function effectively (my
referral). Chicks require this
warmth 24/7 until their downy fluff is
changed with feathers (which can take up to two months). The newly
hatched out require a temperature level
in between 90 as well as 100 levels,
and also every week this can
be lowered by
around 5 levels approximately. The heat resource must get on simply one side of the cage
to allow chicks an array of
temperatures. The chicks are your best
thermometer- if they are hiding in the
other edge of your heat
light, you have to
reduce the temperature level. If
they are smothering each other under the
heat (not just curling up),
you need to put some warmth.
Home cleaning
Tidiness is essential as
well as it keeps your chicks healthy and
balanced. Make sure to change
the bedding
frequently and
always provide tidy
food as well as water Food and water.
Chicks grow very fast
which needs a lot of clean
food and also water. Offer
sufficient in any way times and also inspect
frequently to
stop dehydrated as well as
hungry chicks. Chick food is different than grown-up chicken food, and also it comes
in both medicated and
also non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
very first two months, then
switch to a grower food (~ 17 %
healthy protein) for another 2 months,
and then to a somewhat
reduced protein feed or a level feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks want
to obtain a head start on taking
dirt baths, while others will not use up that activity till they are
older. If you have the space in your chick
unit, present a tray of sand or
filth for them to shower in.
Focus and also love There are a couple of advantages to spending time with your chicks. To start
with, they will certainly probably bond with you and
not run away as adults. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily and also
see their habits, you could
capture ailment or other issues earlier. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, hopping, or
other undesirable
indicators. Make sure to
likewise take a look at
their poop, as looseness of the bowels could result in matted feathers and also obstructed cloaca.
Lastly, it is essential to watch out for social issues, such as the
littlest chick getting badgered. Empty nest syndrome So your
chicks are currently fully feathery
as well as its time for them to leave the
security of your house
and relocate outside into a cage. Look into our
part on chicken cages to read more
about coops and
correct cage environments.
