My Chicken Rentals’ Post

My acting skills are top-notch, wouldn't you agree? Maybe I should audition for a commercial... for dog food, obviously! Does your dog ever act like they're about to perish from hunger?

A Story About Risk Managment "Red" might the most photographed chicken in the history of mankind. 😅 He was hatched an only chick, an orphan. His batch of eggs traveled 2,100 miles in January of 2023, and most likely most of the embryos were frozen, or the USPS truck jostled them too much...no way to know. Shipping fertilized eggs over a long distance is sketchy, especially in very cold months; it's a calculated risk and it took us two batches of eggs to get the now rare DNA here to the Pacific Northwest. Being brutally honest, it was also possible our hatching room and incubators failed to hatch the eggs...we realized our hatching environment was not world class, nor were our incubators (the incubators had cost as much as the eggs). Clearly we could have no impact on the handling of the eggs until they were in our hands, but we could go to every length to ensure once we had them they were treated perfectly. After the single hatched egg happened we built a dedicated incubation room, and brought in the world's best incubators...this boosted our results and we now have a small flock that has grown up, is laying fertilized eggs to be hatched. We have established a small flock of "America's Chicken" here in the Pacific Northwest. It's hard to imagine the Heritage Rhode Island Red, a 125 year old genetic line, could be endangered! However, due to commercial practices in poultry over the last 50+ years, (moving away from the ancient Dual Purpose chicken to specialized chickens), there were none like this in Washington, Oregon, Idaho or British Columbia. The takeaway here from an engineering perspective is this: Considering an process to be a like a relay race where each team hands off their work product (the baton) to the next team...there's often not much that can be done until your team gets the baton, so carefully prepare yourself to do your best when you get the baton. https://lnkd.in/gXf8F3FR

🌍📝 ✨What might be a reason why a female chicken is attempting to crow, especially in the absence of a dominant rooster in the flock? ✍️In some cases, when a flock of chickens lacks a dominant rooster, a hen might assume a more assertive role within the group. This can lead to behavioral changes, including attempts at crowing. Crowing is a behavior usually associated with roosters, as they use it to establish territory and communicate with the flock. When a dominant rooster is absent, a hen might attempt to fill the void by exhibiting dominant behaviors, which can include crowing. This behavior is more common in certain breeds of chickens that have a predisposition for assertiveness. It's important to note that while crowing in hens is unusual, it is generally not a cause for concern unless it's accompanied by other signs of distress or illness. In most cases, hens will revert to more typical behavior if a dominant rooster is introduced to the flock or if the social dynamics stabilize in some other way. ©®™✓📠✉️ [email protected] #EnsuringFoodSecurity #YourFavouriteFarmer 24/7 👑 #poultryfarming #poultryindustry

A head of a household provided for everything: children, slaves, cattle, dogs, pigs, wheat, barley, straw, hay, bones, meat, and acorns. He was intelligent and knew the appropriate food for each one. He offered bread, oil, and meat to the children; castor oil and wheat to the slaves; barley, straw, and hay to the animals; bones to the dogs; acorns and leftover bread to the pigs. The same happens with God's disciple: if he is intelligent, he understands what it is to be a disciple. Bodily forms will not be able to deceive him; he will focus on the disposition of each one’s soul and thus speak with him. There are many animals in the world that have human forms. If you are able to recognize them, you will throw acorns to the pigs, while to the cattle you will give barley, straw, and hay; to the dogs, bones; to the slaves, you will distribute rudimentary food; and to the children, the perfect. #Leadership #Wisdom #Intelligence #Management #Discipleship #HumanNature #Insight #Understanding #SpiritualWisdom #FoodForThought #LifeLessons #Knowledge #IntellectualGrowth #HumanBehavior #Philosophy

I often hear people informing me how much they love animals, but nature has intended for us to consume them. Their death is a need, “it’s part of the circle of life”. I do not come from a position of 'my opinion is correct' but I do come from a position of critical thinking. My query, is that the human body in no way resembles a body that was born for eating flesh; as Plutarch said, it has no hawk’s bill, no sharp talon, no roughness of teeth, no such strength of stomach or heat of digestion, as can be sufficient to convert or alter such heavy and fleshy fare. Many respond that we have canines, even though the largest herbivore in the world also has canines. There is nothing biologically suggesting a need for the human body to require flesh for substance in modern society. But if you will contend that you were born to an inclination to such food as you have now a mind to eat, do you then yourself kill what you would eat? And if you do it yourself, why not do it without the help of a chopping-knife, mallet or axe, as wolves, bears, and lions do? Kill an ox with your carnivorous teeth, tear a lamb in pieces, and fall on and eat it alive as they do. If you aren’t comfortable to kill and eat it yourself, then it brings into question the morality around one’s choices. We would not be ok hurting an animal, but if someone else does it, it’s ok. We would never eat a dog, but we are ok to eat a chicken who morally present no difference. I realised years ago the hypocrisy of my consumer choices and it made me realise, 20 years ago that by eating animals I am not in line with my moral values. If I am not ok to hurt the animal myself, and I claim to love animals - how can I pay someone else to hurt them for me, for products I do not need? #PlantBased #Kindness #Love

Did you know that Pandas have a unique vocalization called a "bleat"which they use to communicate with each other. Panda cubs use this to alert danger or to call for their mothers. To find out how adult pandas use bleats you'll need to message me :-) 🐼🗣️ Happy National Panda Day! #NationalPandaDay #PandaDay #PandaLove #GiantPanda #PandaAppreciation #Conservation #EndangeredSpecies #WildlifeWednesday #SaveThePandas #PandaConservation #AdorablePandas #ProtectWildlife #NatureConservation
