Where is everyone #5

I’m your Huckleberry......

Stobbed my booger hooks a few times on one lol.

It’s fixed now, but many here may remember I-59 south from Chattanooga to Birmingham, and how rough the slow lane was? That camel back was so rough it popped the rear glass out right on to my shoulders!! Talk about a rude awakening.....

But I have to agree, always liked a R model for style!!

 

LMAO!!!!

 

Freind of mine use to haul fertilizer to the some chicken farms in NC. I ask him about that smell around the back of his tractor, it’s that liquid fertilizer you smell in my hoses he said..... told me a couple of the workers had told him those chicks was ready for slaughtering in about 7 weeks! One of the reasons I don’t eat chicken but on a rare occasion anymore, and I grew up feeding, watering, plucking, and eating chicken all the time!!! Still like chicken, just don’t trust all the chemicals.....

 

Well, hopefully the Frankenstein engine will be in the frame rails later today, didn’t lay down till 1:30am, little slow this morning. Y’all stay safe out there......

 

Wife left this out last night for me to see....

 

It makes me hesitant too. But it's better now than it used to be in at least one way because they aren't allowed to use antibiotics. They changed that some time back. It was out of hand and they knew it. I'd read some articles and they were drawing comparisons to statistics that claimed that our kids were developing faster physically than normal. Girls were starting puberty younger and the average size of males and females was getting larger all the time for many years there. Height and weight both. It wasn't just genetics, it was because of the food we were feeding them. I'm no chemist or scientist but the evidence was overwhelming that something was out of whack and the statistics reflected it. I had also been told that water samples from the middle of the Pacific Ocean contained trace amounts of antibiotics because we had flooded the planet with the things in pursuit of higher returns on our investment in livestock. Of course we don't want to lose a cow or pig or chicken to a virus but dosing every single one in the food chain wasn't the answer. The results were these " superbugs " that antibiotics can't touch, among other things. It wasn't just chickens. I don't know what other changes in policy were made but you can see advertising from the various Big Chicken industries proclaiming that they are going to the extra effort to provide us with antibiotics free chicken.
Which is pure spin.
All the chicken is antibiotics free now and has been for a while. It will be a long long time before we will be able to get a rough approximation of whether we have done enough to curb the bad effects we caused by overuse of those things. I notice a lot less articles and headlines about the problems now so I'm hopeful that we are going the right direction on that front.
@Feedman @wore out @Lysdexis and everyone else got any ideas what kind of policy they have for pigs and cattle and other livestock as far as antibiotics dosing currently ?
