Another study on the adverse health effects of GMOs on livestock
Dr. Carman and her team discovered a 25% increase in uterus weight in the animals fed the GM diet as compared to the control group. In addition, GM-fed male pigs were four times more likely to be afflicted with severe stomach inflammation, while females had more than double the risk of the control group. The…

Chickens — A New Home
I moved the chickens into the big coop today. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be.

Armed agents raid animal shelter for baby deer
Armed agents raid animal shelter for baby deer WTF? An armed raid on a no-kill animal shelter over a baby deer? And then instead of taking the fawn to a wildlife rehab facility (where it was going the next day) they kill it. Nice work you mother-fucking fascists. Dept of Natural Resources supervisor Jennifer Niemeyer is…

A Rooster Crows
This morning one of the roosters crowed for the first time. It startled me from sleep. At first I thought something was being strangled. It wasn’t your typical crow, instead sounding more like a creaky gate opening. Or like something was being strangled. Only after hearing it three or four times did I realize it…

Fucking Pigs
I hope the pig who shot the dog rots in hell, but not before he dies a slow, painful death himself. What makes this exceptionally abhorrent is that the mother fucker then let the dog suffer. Instead of backing away like the spineless piece of shit he obviously is he should have at least had…

Damn Cows
Driving down the drive-way last night, I saw a foreign object under the front yard tree. What the hell is that, I think to myself, as I reach for the gun that isn’t there. whatever it is, it’s large. It’s black. It appears to be looking back at me. Turns out it’s a cow lying…

Whew… Pecans!
I thought Sadie crapped in the house this morning. I came out of my room and there was this brown lump on the carpet. i didn’t have my glasses on, so everything was a bit blurry. figured it wasn’t going anywhere, so i took sadie out quickly, then put her in her kennel and go…
