It's a great feeling when drunk closed minded individuals put down tokers as 'drug addicts' while they scoff beers and ciggies..coffee, panadol..
I don't wake up with a hangover, nor get the urge to beat ppl up after a toke.
All that aside, just respect the choices I make for myself as I do yours:) kents:)

Ome- I'm absolutely against 'cruelty' some conditions that are deemed acceptable for farmed livestock I find disturbing. Even more reason for me to slaughter my own, more out if respect, if I'm prepared to eat it sold from a butcher shop.. Respect!! To all earth creatures:)

Hens will lay 1 egg per day, so get as many as you need. What type of chicken, and where to get them depends. I have Australorps (Aussie, good utility bird for egg and meat production, quiet, large sized black birds, can bea bit cheeky) and Isa browns, which are a sex link bird, soley egg producer, these are the ones used as battery hens.
Hens moult in autumn and they produce less eggs after that so buy young chicks around this time get full productivity. A rooster is up to you, they will fertilize the eggs but you can still eat them. Local councils can have rules against keeping a rooster.
When they get old mate, eat them, or somebody can eat them, circle of life brother:)

Yeah, that is why I say that it is a grey area for me.

I don't know if I would eat their eggs or not...I certainly don't want to just throw them out.

But I would see them as a pet...and I couldn't eat my pet.

The main reason I would get one is to clean up under the fruit trees (that I plan on growing), eat scraps from the garden and chew through any spent grain when I brew (once or twice a year it will be).

The eggs can go to your nieghbours, or back to your birds as a high protein feed, the shells are a supplement will help keep the egg shells hard.
As a pet, just grab 2, they are wonderful pets ime, especially if you just keep a couple. They hang around you, go outside and enjoy your morning brew/toke and chill with your ladies:) They are a pleasure to watch as they go about there biz.
Mine use to come inside the house and check it out lol.

Geez 2 or 3 bong hits lately and my lungs know it:)

Took a rip off this bud heavy ghani, grown in Debco, nice floral like you run over nice flowers with the lawnmower.
I find usefulness in most types of weed, maybe even the most raw potent strains can be less enjoyable
