[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Back in the day, having to keep chickens on your property was a sign of poverty and was a source of shame.

No, not really. We live in a global economy with sophisticated supply chains and robust markets. Eggs are affordable and easily found at any grocery store. So, yeah, if you have chickens, I figure you're either poor or ironic to the point of appearing foolish.[/quote]

"In the wild, chickens like to dust-bathe, turkeys fly considerable distances, and ducks spend most of their lives on water.

But in poultry farms, thousands are crammed together in dark sheds, unable to express their natural instincts. They are forced to stand and lie down in their own waste, as the litter on the barn floor is never changed."
