flip side to not raising cx broilers is it will encourage lab 'raised' fake meats. Right now they are very expensive. Some day I think the fake meat will be mainly what's available.

FYI I raise my own poultry for meat because I don't agree with how they are raised commercially.... and it costs me about $7 usd a pound verses less than $2 in stores.

Cheap food leads to expensive health problems.

I'm raising meat birds too. Mine are cochin/americana cross and a couple buff orpingtons. Hoping to let hens hatch some every year to eat, it's a good way to guarantee nice quality and humane raising.
I hadn't planned on butchering myself but dad and I already did one and it wasn't so bad. Honestly the hardest part is not getting too attached to the chicks I think.

When will the cheap meat consumers act on the chicken* abuse thats going on world wide?
* and other factory farming animals.

Did you know that the UPF food industry prefers to use the very cheapest meat from countries without any restrictions in animal welfare? The labels don’t tell where the meat that is used comes from. But often it comes from outside of Europe where chickens are kept in old fashioned chicken battery’s. And toxins in their feed are barely controlled.

It would be great if lab meat becomes cheaper than factory farming meat. I believe it would end of the large scale animal abuse.

And when we get some calamity and the labs go down....no breeders to raise live chickens or beef or whatever else they grow. And the crops won't be grown to feed the livestock.... I guess we could go with algae or plankton but that didn't work out too well in the science fiction movie " Soylent Green"

But the fake meat would not have the same nutritional content.

What dosage of vitamin D with K did you take, for how long?

I take Vitamin D3 and I think it is 2,300 or 2,300 International Units with no Vitamin K.

I take 81 mg. of Aspirin related to my a-fib.
