Roxan........................ I think you really missed the whole point of thread utterly & completely, it's not that folks here do any bashing or intend to somehow hurt the very sensitive feelers of the newby's. The thread was inspired for real advice directed to folks who want a no nonesense approach and a real world idea of how to raise fowl PROPERLY !!!!!. There are no less than 40,000,000 other threads where you can go to get hug's and pat's on the back when mildred the house hen passes away.................. this however is not that place. If someone wants to ask the sex of 45 second old hatchery bird there are other places for that as well as all the other mirad of other simple questions that can be found on mulitple repeating threads. This thread however was thoughtout with the premise of those who don't want to raise their birds in that manner, those who don't mind actually eating one of their own flock, or perhaps a less touchy feely real world none PC attitude towards raising birds. Sure we can be rough around the edges and it is meant to be that way, this is the only thread where we don't coddle and contrary to popular belief some people prefer this approach. we are also here to dispell false information diseminated throughout the rest of this forum and we like to set the record straight, and people like that, the numbers and testimonials will reflect that. If you feel offended OH well we can't please everybody and don't plan to, if your looking for that touchy feely huggy pie kissey poo type agenda for raising birds where everything is rainbows & unicorns so be it, there are many places on the BYC that will welcome you & Mildred with open arms. If you have a good question we will do our best to help, but if our brand of advice isn't to your liking well we can't help that. I will also say that many of the main contributors to this thread are fine upstanding folks, well respected in the poultry community. I am not a subcriber to the answer that there are no dumb questions................. sure there are and if it is we just might say so, what's the problem with that???. The world would be much better off these day's with a little dose of reality and everybody can't win all the time. There are threads that I will never go to because they are very *&*&^% so I don't go there it's realy pretty simple, you too can try this method and find threads more suited to your style of animal husbandry, instead of bashing us here !!!!
