The Beginning

It all started about nine months ago when i first started to do a little research on the current food system and industrial agriculture on a whole. As those of you who have done any research of your own could imagine what I discovered, the endless stories of concentration camp chickens, cattle that are meant to eat grass being fed corn and chicken litter, milk that has had all the healthy amino acids and enzymes burned out and numerous other atrocities. Armed with this new found knowledge me and my similarly minded brother set to make a change and do something. Now living in the suburbs we do not have enough room for a cow, although we probably have enough room for a goat or lamb but that just wouldn't fly with the parents. So we made the decision to go with chickens, we are starting off with 25 Cornish x Rocks, and will shortly get some egg layers. Our first birds were hatched on June 9th, 2010 and arrived on the 11th we have kept video records since they arrived and plan to do two updates a day all the way through the cooking and eating of our first bird. Comments and suggestions are always welcome. Stay tuned.
