    Cruelty to Chickens in Factories

    I kill 2 or 3 deer every year to put in the freezer. I suppose they live "a good life as God intended them to live"?

    Cruelty to Chickens in Factories

    I commend you for your being a vegetarian. That said though, I cannot imagine life without meat.

    Cruelty to Chickens in Factories

    You buy chickens that are raised with dignity and respect. Then you KILL AND EAT THEM. That's my point.

    Cruelty to Chickens in Factories

    All I meant was that you're not about to raise enough chickens to feed your town in a handful of chicken tractors. You're going to have to raise them large-scale, which often means having to do things in a manner that some folks find unacceptable. That said, in all the years I worked in a...

    Cruelty to Chickens in Factories

    I was raised on a broiler farm. I helped raise well over a million chickens in my youth. If America wants to be fed, it's how it must be done. Look at large-scale farming. A farmer is not going to grow enough corn/wheat/whatever in a 2-acre lot out back and make a living hauling his goods to...

    Absolutely furious - neighbor's dogs killed my birds

    I'd swallow the loss of the birds....and take it out on the dogs.

    Red Hill, PA No FOWL

    I'd get them anyway. But then I don't take to other folks telling me what to do.

    SouthEast Michigan: Where can you raise chickens and where can you not

    Why is it always some off-the-wall example? Why not let folks sort it out for themselves? I somewhat mastered the art of Mind-Your-Own-Business-101 years ago, and uncut grass, tires strewn about, junk cars, etc don't bother me. I can tend to my own and leave others alone. As to the lions...

    How would you get rid of coyotes?

    Your children should be safe from a coyote under anywhere near normal conditions.

    SouthEast Michigan: Where can you raise chickens and where can you not

    I'm sorry, but it blows my mind that some of you are having to beg permission from some board or council of biddies just to own chickens/bees/whatever. This is AMERICA, not the USSR! Who gave these minions the authority to tell you what you can and cannot have on your own property???

    Bear proofing!?

    My "bear bullet" would be a 150-grain pointed soft point....the only sandbag used might be to rest the gun on.

    Cedar Park, TX ordinance against backyard chickens

    Cedar Park, TX ordinance against backyard chickens

    It would be nice if these nosy neighbors were just called out in the street and it handled there. No need to get the city, etc involved. Oh, for the good old days.

    Cedar Park, TX ordinance against backyard chickens

    I think it would be hilarious for a majority of HOA members to vote and pass a regulation REQUIRING that those opposed to chickens ti buy some or move out. No, I know it won't happen, because owners are typically more reasonable than that. I have yet to meet a gun owner who felt he had the right...

    How do you keep snakes out of the coop?

    I bought my chickens a tae kwon do DVD to watch so they could learn to defend themselves. Sorry, couldn't resist!

    Choosing a surveillance camera

    There are also those who think the idea of shooting someone over stealing a chicken is preposterous....but I don't.

    Beavers

    I'd have a hoot shooting the rascals! We don't have them on our land, only the occasional wanderer that gnaws a few trees and leaves.
