Are you concerned about the recent outbreaks of Avian Flu and the potential health risks of eating commercially raised poultry?
If your family eats 2-3 servings of chicken per week you may be subjecting yourselves to all types of health hazards. Poultry growers are in the business of getting birds to their top weight as quickly as possible by any means available. As a result people are becoming increasingly aware of the health risks of the food they eat. It is no secret that steroids and other chemicals are used to grow chickens quick to the market. What goes into the birds will eventually be ingested by your and your families bodies. Growing in popularity are concerned families hosting a backyard flock of their own to supply meat and eggs. These families control the food their birds receive and raise them in a stress free environment - which results in better taste, nutritional value and satisfaction. Raising a small flock of chickens in the backyard is easier than you think - and, given the rise in cost of chicken perhaps economical as well!
