I live down the road from Murrays and have a free range flock of chickens. Many people have brought me chickens from there that have gotten loose. They are the saddest site ever. they must sedate them heavily before transport and slaughter to prevent thrashing and damage to the meat. Most of what they bring me cannot even hold up their head to drink. I have only been able to keep one or two alive. We see escapies along the road all the time, but the worst is when the guy rides down the road with the bucket of his tractor full of dead birds. steff I just read your post and had to comment.
