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
Northwood North Dakota 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 Northwood,
North Dakota Baby chicks are quite
adorable and
tough to resist,
but it's best to plan for their
arrival before you get them. Prepare first
by gathering not only the
proper materials, but
likewise the appropriate
knowledge to look after
them. Raising baby chicks is relatively
simple, you just should provide them with the following: A
clean as well as warm and comfortable
habitat Plenty of food and water Attention and also
love Habitat Your habitat can be a basic box, fish tank,
pet cat carrier, or guinea
pig cage. Line it with old towels and also
blankets (with no loose
strings!) to begin, as well as after a
couple of weeks utilize straw over newspaper.
Keep in mind: Avoid making use of only
newspaper or other sandal
surface areas-- or your chicks legs could grow
misshapen. You likewise require
something to serve up food and
water in, such as a chicken feeder as well as water
recipe from the feed store, or a pickle container
cover for food as well as a pet dog bird water dispenser from a pet store. Additionally, as the chicks get
older you can introduce a perch
into the environment to obtain them
trained on setting down. Warmth To
maintain your chicks heat you should
provide them with a warmth source.
This could be as straightforward as a 100 watt
light bulb in a reflective clamp style lamp from an equipment store, or an infrared reptile warmth
light bulb likewise function effectively (my
suggestion). Chicks require this
heat 24/7 till their downy fluff is
replaced with plumes (which can occupy to 2 months). The newly
hatched need a temperature
between 90 as well as 100 degrees,
and every week this can
be minimized by
around 5 levels or
so. The heat source ought
to get on simply one side of the cage
to permit chicks a variety of
temperatures. The chicks are your finest
thermostat- if they are concealing in the
opposite corner of your heat
light, you have to
minimize the temperature level. If
they are smothering each various other under the
warmth (not just snuggling),
you need to put some warmth.
House cleaning
Sanitation is crucial and it maintains your chicks healthy. Be sure to transform
the bed linens
commonly as well as
constantly give clean
food and also water Food and also water.
Chicks expand extremely quickly
which calls for plenty of clean
food as well as water. Offer
sufficient in any way times and examine
often to
stop thirsty and
starving chicks. Chick food is different compared
to adult chicken food, and it comes
in both medicated and non-medicated varieties. Feed chick food for the
first two months, after that
switch to a raiser food (~ 17 %
protein) for an additional 2 months,
and then to a slightly
lower protein feed or a layer feed
(if you have layers). Dirt Some chicks want
to get a head start on taking
dirt bathrooms, while others will not take
up that task till they are
older. If you have the room in your chick
enclosure, present a tray of sand or
filth for them to shower in.
Interest as well as love There are a couple of advantages to spending time with your chicks. First of all, they will certainly probably bond with you as well as
not run away as grownups. Second, if you
analyze your chicks daily as well as
see their behavior, you could
capture ailment or other troubles previously. Keep an
eye out for wheezing, hopping, or
various other undesirable
indicators. Make sure to
likewise check out
their poop, as looseness of the bowels could lead
to matted feathers and blocked cloaca.
Lastly, it is necessary to watch out for social issues, such as the
smallest chick obtaining badgered. Empty nest disorder So your
chicks are now fully feathered
and also its time for them to leave the
safety and security of your residence
as well as relocate outside into a cage. Take a look at our
area on chicken cages for more information
regarding cages as well as
appropriate cage environments.
