Chicken consumption in US is immense...restaurants, markets, cost co, etc...it's estimated people consume 55 million chickens each year...that's a lot of chickens!!! Where are they coming from?? A chicken takes approx. 5 months to reach maturity ..so how can the supply be met? Hmmmmmmm...

@visceral,
Maybe they are really buzzards. Once plucked, who's going to know.

The egg.

Approximately half are caught flying south in the winter.

These birds form the basis for the ever popular southern flied chicken.

Heavy traffic in the upper echelon creates log jams over much of the mid-west resulting in considerable turducken turbulence with cranberry.

This paltry nugget from Wikipedia:

In 2008, 9.08 billion chickens were slaughtered in the United States according to United States Department of Agriculture data.

Henocide ? You be the judge.

@visceral,
They’re probably getting in from another country. We should build a three foot high chicken wire fence along the border to keep them out.

@visceral,
Oh you didnt know? Sams walmrt grows chickens in test tubes. Livestock is now cloned in secret facilities. This is how demand is met. I only buy free-range farm grown chicken or I visit a local farm. Its cheaper too.

@visceral,
Yeah that is a lot of chickens being consumed. Every time I buy a chicken wing lunch plate, four chickens had to die for it.

They may not die, but they darn sure don't fly.

Chickens are mistresses of deception. One look at the entrails on the shaman's altar is usually sufficient evidence for most.

Chickens are adroit at scratching a living, cf. tunnelling.

Chickens are thought by many to have been created by a supernatural being using intelligent design, engineering with a definitive pecking order.

Eggs have been known to be secreted in bodily cavities so deeply that NSFWorkers have downed tools in despair of retrieval.

Chickens were revered by the Apollonius of Tyana cult in the first century CE and are suspected of being culpable in the creation of the fish symbol and the invention of Thanksgiving and Xmas so that turkeys could do the hard yards and fish could loaf.

Even after being hung , drawn and quartered chicken will be wrapped in bacon to appear more seductive.

They never eat gravy, coincidence or not?

And if you want to see pure Evil, just look right in your chicken's eye.

@visceral,
I was winging it in the fast lane down Highway One one time when I was overtaken by a four-legged chicken doing about 95. It hung a left at the E10 Ranch and I followed. There was no sign of the chicken but the farmer said he tried breeding them like that for the extra legs. I asked him how they tasted and he looked at me kinda strange. He said he didn't know, he'd never been able to catch one.

Ever since , I've held myself accountable for my unsustainability.
