The lady who posted this said her daughter was on placement at the school and was horrified about this - could anyone give these chicks a home? Two people forwarded the message to me asking for help!!I have some very strong options about this. I’ll keep them to myself as not to offend.
I messaged the only person I know locally who keeps hens and ducks and asked her if she could take them - and she said YES. Hope it all works out well as I was piggy in the middle of the arrangements.
Before you ask, there was no way that I could cope with a brood of chicks, half of which would turn out to be cockerels.
FYI. I side with the chicks
well done for helping rescue them veggie .
Wholeheartedly agree. Even in the name of education, I can't see the sense in rearing only to destroy. I can understand rearing to eat, to demonstrate where our food comes from but not the other.
