Can't fix stupid.

A couple of friends of mine I've known for years are a doctor and a nurse.
I gave them a dozen eggs once and afterward they came by the house to see the chickens. The nurse won't eat the eggs anymore since she saw the nice clean chickens foraging in the field. I said, let me show you how the chickens that laid the eggs you eat are raised. She refused to watch.
To the doctor's credit, he doesn't understand either.

Once I was talking about a rooster and she didn't know that a rooster was an adult make chicken. We were astounded. She said she knew everything about medicine but admitted she knew nothing else.

How can a kid grow up watching cartoons and not know what a rooster is.
Hello, Foghorn leghorn.
How is it possible that people have lost complete touch with where their food comes from?

How much and what kind of meat do you raise?

We have a small herd of Red Devons (and two Jerseys) who are completely grass fed/finished, Large Black Hogs that are pastured and fed supplemental non-GMO and soy free feed as well as about 60 chickens that are free-ranging and also fed non-GMO and soy free feed. Have had to inject one cow (not a Devon) with antibiotics when she came down with hoof rot last year. We will use antibiotics in a life threatening situation. Have had one or two hogs that needed treatment, but that is not unusual. Other than that, our animals have been extremely healthy without any vaccines.
 
Quote: Even farmers are just as bad. My mother had me driver her to her twin sister's house (mind you this is before I ever owned any chickens or even was on byc to learn) their older brother came over and saw a hen in the yard and said to the sister that there was something wrong with her hen. I told him I thought it was molting. He told me I was wrong since they had chickens when they where growing up. He asked his sister what was wrong with her hen, she replied she was molting and didn't he remember what molting looked like? Mind you I have never lived on a farm and just had a few rabbits while I was a young (3-5 years old) kid and my brother raised some pigs for 4-5 months for 4h was the only animals I was around much.
 
My Uncle was a dairy farmer. I remember going to visit, and if it was the right time of the year, we'd come home with a bag of "cow potatoes". He'd buy them by the ton from the county. They were huge and beautiful. Better than the potatoes we bought from the grocery store.

I must admit that this post had me stumped for a moment. I read "cow PATTIES" instead of "cow potatoes". I was wondering why a dairy farmer would buy cow poop by the ton!
