Has it put you off eating chicken, if you ever did?

Nah, I'll sit there eating chicken, and give her a bit. Seriously, if you look up lists of food that's okay/good for them, chicken and eggs are on almost every list. She very much enjoys both.

Now, would I eat her? Nah, and not only because of the breed not being very good as meat, nor that I hope she lives to be very old, which makes for not good meat. She's part of the family, and you don't eat family unless it's life-or-death. Like, I have no objection to eating dog, but I wouldn't eat my dog.

Hell, I don't even object to the idea of eating one's own pets in general, I can see the way it could be a respectful and good thing. I just can't do it lol.

I will say that I'm pickier about sourcing my chicken for food now though. I've always preferred non industrial meat sources when possible, but now that "when possible" has turned into "well, I guess I'll just skip it this time".
