Go.

Okay, going.

I’m not sure what to do about the hurt girl. She seems to be improving but also not? Like she’s more alert now, moving around a bit, and seems to be eating and drinking, so I put her in a slightly bigger cage, but she also seems to be falling a lot???? Almost like something neurological??? Could that happen if she was being bullied away from the food? I don’t want her to suffer so was gonna butcher her with the others when I saw her falling a lot but then she was eating so I might give her another day and see what happens.

I couldn’t get the skin to stay on when I tried. They’re richly flavored little birds anyway so I don’t think it’s worth saving imho. Chicken skin tho ...

ANYWHO Cluck is all bloodthirsty today so I’ll just pop my succulent little numbers in here from my very first hatch and get gone before I become dinner

Set: 19 (apparently???)
Fertile: 17, but 2 quit early
Lockdown: 15
Hatched to survival: 12

I’m bloodthirsty would it shock you that I don’t even eat meat or animal products? I’m plant based I do this for my family

That’s easy to explain! I have the hardest time trying to explain that I only eat animal products from my own home or other trusted farms/homesteads. What you even call that I have no idea. Dogmatarian? Wackatatrian? Bleeding heartatarian? Control freak?

I’m not sure what you’d call it. I think there is actually a name for it

Checking google...

It’s a Humaneitarian
