I need help knowing what to do at work.... In order for you to understand the situation and better answer my question I'll give you the run down. It will probably be a tad long but I hope you will read through most of it. The beginning of my problems started last week. I started working at a Farm/ Plant place a few weeks ago and they raise meat chickens along with some other produce and limited amount of other birds. When I was hired 2 others were "let go" due to doing things they shouldn't have done at work. One of them was the chicken processer. No one else was willing to do it and I have done it a few times and wanted to become more efficant so I said I was more than willing to do it. It's not something I am overly excited to do but since I own chickens I know at some point I will probably process more and this would be good practice and a good learning experience. I knew all of the things needed and the basics of the whole deal. At one point I was talking to an employee M (I'm going to leave names out because I don't want to point someone out and make a potentintal fuss) and asking him where the equipment was. He then was trying to tell me how to process a chickens and saying how the water needs to be an EXACT tempurature and a few other things. I kept trying to tell him I have done this before and am no newbie but he kept ignoring me and making it sound like it is some complex surgical procedure. I was polite and just stood back and said nothing letting him try to "school" me on how to do it even though he had never done it only seen it done once or twice. After that I had to leave for 2 weeks because I had already planned a vacation. The meat chickens were not taken care of and are now at least 12lb easy. I said I would take care of it and the kid was mumbling something about who would help or what days I could do it. He left and I was going to talk to a manager in a few days about the whole thing. I had also discussed with them the amount of food they were giving the animals. In one coop were roughly 50 chickens are they have a nice big shed. The first time I walked in I stepped on this bedding and its seemed like it would be a nice thing to use in mine. As I was about to ask what it was I realized it was layer crumble... 4 inches in a 6 foot x 6 foot area. I couldn't believe how much food they gave them! The other chicken area with goats and some turkeyies was pretty much the same with the amount of food. During the heat they should not get that much food and even in normal circumstances they were feeding wayyyy to much. I told them in detail the amount they should feed, why and how it would be more cost effective. Well they didn't listen of course... I bit my tongue and went on with work. When I went into work today one of the days chores was moving the young meat chickens into a new enclosure (probably at least 30). They were keeping them in a flithy trailer which they never cleaned so I was more than happy to move them to their new pen outside which had grass in it. I was getting help from C with moving the birds. It was over 100 today and I was trying to catch the birds quickly and move them so they wouldn't be as stressed. While we were doing this we realized all their waterers were bone dry. C and I were not happy about this. M had told C that he had checked their water and it was full. We were both irritated but we were going to give them water when they were moved. We moved the first batch down and filled their waterer. They ran and were gulping it down as fast as they could. We then came back with the next batch and when I came to the pen at least 8 of the chickens were having sesures... 3 were very bad. I acted immediatly by grabbing the 2 worst leaving the other because I was already to late in helping her. I went outside got a hose and started poring the cool water on them to lower their body tempuratures. They were so hot my hand hurt touching them. I did this for 5 minutes until their color started to come back and their convulsions were less rapid. I left them in a puddle of cool water and I went and got the others who were convulsing and cooled them as well. C was helpful and asked what he could do. I was focused on the chickens and he went to check on their water and others in the pen. Then M came driving up asking what is going on. Me being beyond ****** and very upset I sternly said they are having heat strokes and are convulsing. I just said it while walking by with another chicken to treat. I was so angry that he didn't care at all that he made these poor birds suffer! He didn't even bat an eye and was rough in bringing the others down. I know they are going to be eaten but they should still be treated with respect and kindness. I was able to save all but one... I brought the other 2 really bad ones into the main office where they were doing 100% better. Part of me wants to take them to my house and care for them. I honestly don't know if they will have lasting damage from the convulsions too. I am still very up set about how those birds suffered from this kids incompetence and laziness. All of this could have been prevented by simply making sure the birds had water. So here is finally my question.... M is the owners son. I really couldn't give a rats a** but I feel like it could be complicated if I called him out... I want to talk to the manager and express how his lack of doing his job could have killed easy 12 chickens if I wasn't there to save them. I know I need to be level headed about the whole thing but I'm afraid they are going to ignore me like they did before... I also hate causing trouble but this was something that greatly upset me. What should I do? Should talk to the manager? If that doesn't work should I talk to the owner? I don't know what to do and it is really tearing me up... please help
