This is spot on and something unconsidered generally There is so much legality behind the scenes that I am sure they are handcuffed beyond my (our) comprehension.
And you are also correct. A true conspiracy theorist NEEDS to be accurate because their ideas are so far reaching. One of the...
I did see some of these folks testing and was shocked at how accurate the actually nutritional numbers are. I didn't feel like I'd have anything of relevancy to contribute.
Again, I think because we are folks who spend time on the internet, looking up chicken stuff, and we make up a very small...
This very well could have been a local manager trying to save themselves 😂
I don't know. You obviously have seen something similar (but scaled much larger) with annheser Busch and bud light. In that case, they tried to stop the bleeding quickly.
My thought is, chicken feed must be a much...
Third party feed testing, shared publicly would be the only way to debunk this rumor. I'm not saying I believe it, but, in a scenario like this, there isn't any evidence to say either way. We can make a ton of speculations, but we can't say anything concrete. Here are a few things to consider...
I don't doubt this at all and I know I have generally been the bad guy in the thread, or a bad guy, but honestly I doubt that there is anything to it.
Similar to what you said, every single company has a cabal, people behind the scenes making decisions that people don't want to make. Even...
Hi Max
Don't be deterred. Sometimes folks on here get really upset when status quo is in question, kind of like anywhere else.
We have been feeding our hens and broilers alike feed that we mix here on the farm for 8 years. I've learned not to share it openly here. Happy to send it to you...
Yes I'd say this is true - I'm this context, it isnt ALWAYS better. I suppose everything in some sense, has a downfall. Furthermore, raising your own chickens while feeding bagged food is more beneficial than being discouraged and not raising them at all. Middle ground reached. 👍
I appreciate...
True.
Thank you for the engagement - it is nice, even if it gets a bit testy to not have someone just walk away, and I apologize if I was out of line at times.
I think ultimately, the last few years have made everyone first defend whatever it is they believe, opposed to embracing and really...
Count me in if you find a cookie that is a complete diet for a person 😉
You're right, you could always run into shortages regardless. But, you can also produce and grow your own ingredients. In your cookie example, you can mill your own flour and raise bees for honey as a sweetener - making you...
Here is what I have concluded over the last few years.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I just need to live with it because a sensible debate, no longer exists. You can literally watch this thread deteriorate into what now resembles a clearly divided country. And the argument is...
Then
Every "proven fact" in this context has a dissent. It isn't ignorant to use the experience of others and your instinct when making decisions. Discrediting others experience would be consider ignorant.
Aside from the fact that I agree with your assessment of the commercial food, regardless - blending your own feed is always superior. Not only do you know exactly what is in there, but it is also more sustainable in the event of shortages.
And there is one prominent BYC user who we will leave...
