    Turkeys are very difficult to raise so I would think that a free range one might be even more expensive as there are risks will it running loose and enjoying life that a caged bird does not have.

    I've never been the same since

    It hasn't ;) We have just pointed out that kosher does not mean in the first place that it is humanely butchered.

    Somehow I don't think films like Farm to Fridge by Mercy for Animals will show up on networks such as NBC and Fox, although such networks are obsessed like crazy with showing all the gore of murder cases. So its not an issue about not wanting to show violent, repulsive behavior.

    Interesting too that whenever there is an outbreak of something such as salmonella, the TV networks deliberately skirt around the issue and never get to the point about how caging animals together with their waste was the root cause of the outbreak.

    Most people don't watch them anyway. That's the video that I show people when they ask why I don't want to support factory farms, and slaughterhouse meat when possible. The response I always get it, "I'm not watching that. Those videos are gruesome." Well...duh...that's the point...people need to see what they're mindlessly throwing their money at.

    Do I need to explain to you the benefits of mass production?

    Also rhetorical ofcourse.

    I'll be slaughtering some chickens in the morning for family of friends gathering. I know them quite well. Been feeding them black sunflower. I'll keep you a breast on how it all went down.

    The birds went quietly into a cacciatore that was enjoyed by all. The birds not being produced in a factory turned out to be all legs and thighs and little breast and finally the moral is, tastes great, less filling.
