Transgender activists - take note. :)
In many ways it would be easier if humans laid eggs...
In some religions life is deemed to have started at insemination.
We have 2 beautiful granddaughters. The youngest needed surgery, would cost $100K. We were willing to pay for it. But Cook’s children’s hospital in Ft Worth did it for free. They looked over their finances and determined that there was no way they could afford the only health insurance that their company offered them, $2k a month... They only make about $4k a month. So we said not to worry we would pay for it. (before Obamacare they ALWAYS had health insurance and never neede or used it )
A “friend” was putting us down for offering to pay. He is an X Catholic priest. I told him that most people would have just aborted her. I am against abortion (thought he would be too)
I am thankful she will be 2 in January! And I would give her all my money and earthly treasures. I would give her a kidney, eyes, lung, I already gave her my heart! So she had her kidney surgery in Sept - 9.5 hours. She had her spinal surgery Dec 6. She is now out of pain and learning to walk normally.
Her husband works for a small company that does offer health insurance but it is very expensive. THis is the first time they ever needed health insurance, and first time they couldn’t afford it.
Our son works at a huge company and his is $1K a month and they never go to a doctor. Never sick.
Our son in law’s sister has health insurance through a major company and only pays $500 a month for 4 of them.
ObamaCare only made the monthly premiums go UP. Didn’t help anyone.
So thankful and blessed our kids didn’t go for an abortion.
While the chick is in the egg is a little early to be assigning roles to it, don’t you think?
Humpty’s Law?
A friend had a farm. It was all new to him. He ordered ‘sexed’ chicks to have a high percentage of female chicks for egg layers. It was supposed to be about 90% hens. The actual count was closer about 70%. So when he had a whole bunch of young roosters fighting over the hens, I helped him slaughter the roosters which were then the main course that Sunday dinner. The rest went into the freezer.
If you are a guy anymore, you need to find a hideaway!
Did we not learn that feeding animal products to herbivores can be a bad thing?
Man-hating feminazis are not happy over this.
It sounds to me like they are still killing off the male chicks. They are just managing to kill them 12 days earlier than by normal industry practices.
The article states that the eggs containing male chicks are processed into animal feed. Is that processing more or less humane than the usual culling method, which involves throwing the male chicks into a macerator that completely pulverizes them within milliseconds? How quickly does the processing kill the male chicks, vs. the maceration process? The only advantage I see to earlier culling is that the hatcheries will spend less on incubating and producing unsellable chicks. However, the decreased incubation costs might be offset by the costs of determining the gender of the chick in the egg.
The real breakthrough in humane egg farming will occur when male chicks can be prevented from being conceived. This company certainly has not achieved that.
Question for the biologists. How can the Y chromosone be eradicated from the male spermatazoa? AND how can the x chromosone in the hen be activated to produce a hen?
Exactly the opposite of the way some cultures deal with the gender of babies, i.e., girls have no value.
I can’t believe the propaganda in this article. They make it seem like this development is some sort of moral victory, when it’s just a way to shorten incubation times and costs and get rid of chicken-sexer jobs. The end results are the same, just at lower costs.
“Egg not alive, chick alive” is just the sort of thing abortionists say about people, and that’s what’s important in this article.
Why do I get the feeling this is the "solution" the feminists would prefer for the male human problem nowadays?
They would keep only a few necessary soy-boys around for procreation.
chinas policy of no female babies is diluting the race. Men go to other countries to find a bride thereby injecting the other countries DNA into the pool. Chinese as a race will soon be non existent.
But what if the male chicks self identify as female chicks?
Can’t they all be hatched and decide what they want to be afterwards?
“If you can determine the sex of a hatching egg you can entirely dispense with the culling of live male chicks,”
SAY WHAT? I worked in chicken hatcheries years ago.
We had Japanese “sexers” come in and separate the male chicks from the females. The females were sent to grow to produce eggs, the males were sent to grow and three months later processed into people food.
Excess female chicks also were raised for people food.
“Scientists can now quickly determine a chick’s gender before it hatches”
So...it’s accepted that chickens are either male or female prior to hatching. But humans are not male or female in the womb, since they may disagree with it later (say, at 5 years old) and want one or more of dozens of genders, based on emotional whims. And for this we must uproot and destroy centuries of science, morality and our common sense understanding of human nature in order to proceed. Got it.
