Chicken Fever!

Uh oh... I heard about some chicks at TSC a few days ago and now I want some. The only thing holding me back is that I don't have a place to brood them and keep them safe from other animals until they are big enough to go out in a coop. But I want some chickens... and my own eggs if I can afford the start up costs.



It's much cheaper to just buy them at the store even at these prices but it's not about egg prices. It's about food supply and self sufficiency. It's about control. And stupid news articles telling everyone how bad it is to raise your own chickens and eggs. It's unhealthy... really? Why would anyone want to eat lesser quality food than what they could grow for themselves??? Really? Do my brains look scrambled?




Do you really believe that home grown eggs are causing people to have foot long blood clots? It's not the eggs and we know what causes that. Every fiber of my being tells me that is a lie. Go do research on the health benefits of raising your own food compared to mass production of chicken meat and egg producing factories and you tell me what is better for you to consume. Have you seen how these birds live crammed on top of each other in cages and how they are treated? It's inhumane really.




And in the past few years the mass destruction of millions, yes millions of chickens on a global scale. And not in a humane way in some instances. Go look up the 2022 Iowa 5.3 million chickens destroyed  where they literally cooked them alive because one bird tested positive for bird flu. It doesn't take a genius to conclude that something is going on here. And now I've read that the govt wants us to register our gardens too... but why? No thanks.  But back to my chickens... 




I've got chicken fever. And I'm not the only one. There is a growing trend of people who are buying chicks up as soon as they hit the farm supply stores. Mail order chicks are backordered until May and June. People are catching on to what is going on and I'm not a conspiracy theorist but if you are wise you can see the hen scratch on the wall. 




In the meantime I guess I'll just have to make my own chickens. You can't eat these but they sure are cute! 




Now I've got to go plan my real life coop so I can have me some real life chickens and some real home grown eggs too. If I build it... they will come.




BOCK!!  BOCK!!
