bird 9,969 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 the people next door to me, keep live stock, sheep, horses, alpacas , they been lambing the last 2 weeks, got 22 lambs most blacks few whites . me and the wife were watching from the back garden playing in the fields ., it was great to see them running/ jumping a round . brill . it really makes you think about eating meat, when you watch this lot really does, ok in couple months time when there bigger and of to market, they will be just lamb chops on a plate true . But it deff makes you look at meat to consume differently , i suppose because i like the taste of meat/fish i wont change , but seeing those little lambs playing deff does make you think different. .

low plains drifter 10,685 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 There is a big vegan advert sign on the roadside near where I live with the caption- why love one, and eat the other as a puppy, and a piglet stand together, I wonder how many of these vegans have livestock tucked up by their sides on the settee of an evening, I often wonder how I can hunt the animals that interest, and fascinate me so much, but you have got to balance sentiment with reality, animals exist to be worked, hunted, reared for eating, or as pets, they've all got their own specific purpose for existing 3 Quote Link to post

Blackdog92 2,047 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Start farming sheep and you will soon forget about that by the time youve lambed them reared them and fattened them your usualy pretty glad to see the back of them. This is just the begining. 4 Quote Link to post
roybo 2,873 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Sheep pigs and cattle have done well out of humans they are on every continent except Antarctica. If we didn't use them they wouldn't exist as they are. They'd probably be extinct. 4 Quote Link to post
