I do have a question, if you're animals are vegetarian, does that mean they do not free range on bugs from the ground??Diana Baumanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02520992408166526347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6751143476915556143.post-84190051422075638822009-05-19T07:49:00.000-05:002009-05-19T07:49:00.000-05:00I knew shops would leave grounds a lot.

I never have to buy fertilizer between the chickens, grounds and the llama poo as well. As it turns out, it is already the perfect composition for garden fertilizer, and does not aged like other manure. The llama farms I was reading about actually bag and sell the stuff. <br>And my birds, if they choose to eat bugs, I guess they aren't really vegetarians. Actually, once I thought about it, they really do like meat. Between the cannibalism, the bugs, and they will eat any snake or small rodent that jumps out from the lawn mower as well, or tries to hide out in their coop, they aren't. But I try. There are just substantial issues with eating meat that has been eating meat. Most the funky issues out there with animal health can be tracked back to an animal eating other animals, especially the same animals as themselves. A few mice or snakes are not going to hurt the birds, but it makes an animal biblically "unclean" to eat if it has eaten other animals regularly. Not that we live according to OT rules, strictly, but there was a purpose there. So, that is another reason that pastured/grass fed is sooo important if you choose to eat meat (we are big ol' carnivores over here) because if it causes all those problems in the animals, it only makes sense that it will do so in a human as well. <br>Sorry for the binge-I just had thoughts coming all spurred by the bug comment, which was very funny :)Abbyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16203667872761247312noreply@blogger.com
