I’m equality it to years ago when milk was so great for you, then it wasn’t and now it is again!
I know I didn’t freak out from not having my diet DP this morning at wake-up. I survived…
If your looking check the moderator input his is about his house move and may need a fill in
Poor cows most are only alive for us to turn their udders into commbersone milking machines, and we steal their babies, the rest except the odd lucky bull are fed asap and slaughtered. Their problem is if we were not eating them we would use the land therefore they would have no place to live.
IF they had a choice and could migrate the informed once would be on the first slow boat to India where many consider them sacred and let them walk about, the others ? They still eat them.
Warning scroll past if your not interested in chickens or ducks
CHICKENS are right royally fxxxxxx the type that is bred for meat mature in WEEKS and if they lived beyond that their weight is so obese it breaks their legs. The egg layers can live a good number of years maybe a dogs life, and in a farmyard or house garden may manage that BUT in business a chicken lays the most eggs in its firs-st laying year then that drops to 90 then 80 percent, most intense chicken producers what as many eggs as possible and dumping young healthy ish (not kept in great conditions) chickens for the new lot to be farmed, a chicken produces 200-300 there about all depends on the breed. The little fluffy bantams are not bred for eggs nor for meat they are usually well treated by their owners and have a half decent life.
life and paying taxes and keeping your head above water and for the big boys mere greed is not conducive to well kept healthy living in fresh air animals. I could moan more, I am NOT someone who goes out telling other people their business, I eat meat, and dairy and eggs with relish, I do just feel that animals are unfortunately given short shift and I do not have a go at the farmers either, because. A king a profit every year hoping the weather will be perfect and the taxes affordable is a pipe dream
plus I own chickens, and when it is wet their area is gross and when it is dry their are lice and pests, and rats try to steal their food their eggs and their chicks, as do squirrels and some birds.
I have far better results than the mothers do, I try to keep a mum and babies together, the white cockerel was a character I called Donald after a certain person I like Donald and those model chickens are far easier to care for. I mostly showed ducks because sone of them get to trust you. chickens only one was every actually friendly and she got scoffed by a fox
If your looking at the food bowl yes that is pasta with the mixed corn
they get it in warm weather and give you a dirty look when it is not on the menu.
They get free range pellet mix, apples in season,soft fruit in season,spinach cold months from the polytunnel, dandelions spring and autumn, slugs,snails when I clean in the polytunnel, oyster shell and small stone for their digestion, the geese are scared of me because I wade in and pick them up by their feet if I have too - cowards.Honk and run.I have incubators and other kit but we do it for fun and do not sell. Any extra boys do end up in the freezer and we don’t not hand rear them often. mainly because it is a lot of work. I understand it is very hard to be profitable and I can see that we spend far too much money on food let alone the rest of the kit.
but it suits self sufficiency ethos.
the goats were returned to breeder after the broke my angle and knee. we had planned on pigs but that idea went west with the goats, especially as I admit I was then scared of them.
OMG this post is too long….sorry
Jaz and David, too much information for a city boy.
Trotters plenty of meat, head brain tongue, also plenty of meat a little human than pets?
Skin-scratchings, a very small amount of leather, bones ground for gardeners/farmers, maybe pet food ears certainly, pig hearts,live,kidney sone human rest pet food….pigs ears pets and chopped for tins I’m sure
Ok but what happens to the guts!…do I want the answer?
if it is any consolation they also remember the nice and sweet things,
She will remember a birthday or Xmas present, or the lack thereof or wise the fact you bought her say a kettle for her birthday THAT is not an never will be a birthday or Xmas present, she wants something frivolous (hopefully not a stupid expensive handbag) that is something she likes. if in doubt include chocolates she likes, a birthday card goes a lonnnnng way especially if there’s a nice note inside
Forget at your peril, the other half once forget my birthday, got up got ready tried to leave for work…..having got total short shift in the morning, he took a half days holiday off work hit a jewellery store and a chocolate box and flowers and a card and a nervous sidle back into the house….
He forgot another on a Sunday, disappeared before I got up and came back with like 6 bouquets of flowers, because it was all he could get from the three petrol stations that were open…at which point I did not know wether to smack him,kiss him or crack up laughing.
Worse for him since mobile phones and cameras I often photograph items that make him look a dork, he eventually caught on and dies the same to me, BUT I remember to label and search for them…..
FYI I love him to bits. 99.9999999 percent of the time.
I have treated maggots on a chicken. Cleaned up after freshly born kittens, handled dead baby goat,seen but not dealt with someone’s dog left to run loose near a harvester (not recommended) removed dead chickens or ducks, or worse dying not yet dead
dealt with poop from animals, and humans. Most blokes run from at least one of those.
A dislocated shoulder Onot mine) did make me feel queasy, someone fell off their horse wrong. Omg omg y posts on one page……left the building

I was in the pork production business twice in my working life. Both times in sales, once in the foodservice/hospitality side and once in the retail side. One company (Large well known) processed 18,000 hogs per day (in just that facility) and the other company was much a much smaller boutique processor that did 2,400 hog per week.
I can confirm that everything was processed/sold, but the squeal.

Women have the memories of elephants especially on details that they deem worth remembering especially details to tag in to arguments when the mood suits. Smirks
