Joel Salatin is amazing. Thank you for having him guest post and highlight this important issue

Familiarize yourself with Reginaldo Haslett-Marroquin. He raises chickens in agroforestry systems, both laying hens and broilers. He calls these tree-farmed chickens. http://www.treerangefarms.com/ This is how chickens should be raised.

Another option is what Paul Grieves is doing with Pasture Bird. https://www.pasturebird.com/ Paul has taken Joel's mobile chicken coop model and enlarged it. But Paul still uses his self powered large coops to regenerate land.

Have you never seen a real factory chicken farm? Or smelled one? The stench is agonizing and painful on the eyes to behold, as well as the ammonia blinding- for humans and chickens. Chickens need to be treated like chickens. Period. Trying to control Mother Nature and the basic standards of living needed for each species to thrive is a recipe for disease and disaster. It's basic animal husbandry.

Unfortunately, this Machiavellian approach to world domination is exactly why we are where we are today. Cooperation with and honoring nature is the only way to survive long-term. Disease and suffering will run rampant so long as we think we can best Mother Nature just to stuff our human faces cheaply.

In a way, I think there IS a connection that ties this chicken issue with the "main point" of mRNA jabs. In both cases we humans seem to think that we are separate from, and exist above, the rest of the biosphere. That it's our God-given right to "use or improve" the flora and fauna and natural processes of the earth as we wish, without regard to consequences; e.g., without regard to the depletion of the soil or the development of disease in overpopulated, over-medicated animal farms, and so on. To me it's fundamentally an attitude thing.

Just as our bodies are healthiest when they're in balance, the biosphere is healthiest when it's in balance. We're part of the biosphere. Just as being out of balance health-wise eventually comes back to bite us as individuals, so too will the biosphere being out of balance come back to bite us as a species. In my opinion, we're already feeling the nibbles.

I live in Washington State and am thrilled to be able to purchase Palouse Pastured Eggs at a number of local grocery stores. The owners of this business are incredibly attuned to the health and vibrancy of their flock, which results in eggs that are full of flavor and nutrition. If you ever get the chance to sample their product, I know you will be impressed.

I would agree that veterinarians tend to be more aware of the natural balance required for the health of both living animals and the biosphere. My daughter and son-in-law are DVMs and it's quite evident they think in those terms.

World Organization For Animal Health Have Been Conducting A Large Number Simulated Bird Flu Pandemics.

Dr. Dwight Walrond, Delegate to WOAH and Chief Executive Officer of the Guyana Livestock Development Authority, informed WOAH that a real field simulation exercise of an outbreak of High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza under the title тАЬBird Flu Prevention testтАЭ will take place on 14-16 March 2023. The exercise is organized by the Government of Guyana through its Ministry of Agriculture, Guyana Livestock Development Authority (GLDA), in partnership with the Veterinary Public Health Unit, Ministry of Health and other relevant government and non-governmental agencies.

Given the scarcity of health professionals participating in the covid pandemic tabletop exercises, I wonder what percentage of the members of WOAH, GLDA and other "relevant" agencies are actually veterinarians.

Probably only those veterinarians that believe killing entire flocks because one bird got sick is the only measure that can be taken because wouldn't it be unwise to have those with innate immunity go on to produce baseline flocks with immunity to H5N1. Perhaps with a vax available they would be the ones to get $ for every foul they vaxed!

This entire link goes through great articles including тАЬDr. Kawaoka merged this H5N1 bird flu with the seasonal flu strains, capable of infecting people, that was also highly pathogenic in mice and forests. One doctor warned at the time: тАЬDr. Kawaoka and his research team have taken a human PB2 gene segment and spliced it to H5N1 bird flu. The result is a lethal and even more virulent virus than the parent H5H1 strain!тАЭ

Stinks, but great fertilizer.

What it amplified for me is yet another part of the government that does not act rationally.

And it forces everyone else to go along with its irrationality no matter the costs in money or lives.

Of course they act rationally. You just donтАЩt understand their actual motives & who they serve. ItтАЩs not тАЬthe public.тАЭ

LOL. How ironic....if you want to discuss globalists, you should be pointing your finger at corporations like Tyson who have exploitive relationships with their contractors.

Confined chicken operations are a complete abomination.

Globalists are intentionally killing millions of healthy chickens in hopes that a robust, naturally immune chicken could not be bred, where they don't come in under color of law and kill all your birds because a few have it. They want to sell another vaccine!

Do you get any of this?

LOL. Is this satire? If not, it should be. Though if not, you should also up your medications.

As for your physiology argument, that's as lame as when vegans make the same stupid arguments about teeth. Humans pre-process their food before sticking it in their mouths. Regardless, I'm not arguing against eating other species. Why you think I am is further evidence of your mental illness, All I noted elsewhere in this forum is that there are much better ways to raise chickens than in CAFO's for both the producers and the chickens.

Here again is what I noted elsewhere:

Tyson has been destroying perfectly healthy chickens and no one knows why. This was shared by an employee who directly witnessed it (personal friend of mine). They were not told that the chickens were diseased, and they all appeared healthy. They were just told to destroy them. I trust those employees that work directly hands on with the flock far more than the corporate hacks. So how to explain just killing healthy chickens? They want us eating grilled grubs and they will do it any way they can.

Steve, here is some bad news. The legislation being used to smuggle in CBDC language is the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), a routine piece of legislation passed on the state level that helps standardize commercial and business transactions. A new round of UCCs being deliberated RIGHT NOW in 12 Republican-led states anticipates the use of "electronic money."

Oklahoma House Bill HB 2776 passed the House Committee and will go to a chamber vote soon. If passed, it will go to the Senate, then the governor's desk. If you are an Oklahoma resident, contact your representative's office NOW to amend the bill without the "electronic money" language.

Arkansas House Bill HB1588 is in committee, and if passed, will head to the House floor. Though the bill is only in its beginning stages, it's important for Arkansas residents to stop this bill in its tracks and amend it without the "electronic money" language.
