Live my life at ChickenOut.tv

I’ve just been sent the email below.  A cam­paign well worth supporting.

Over 39 days — the piti­fully short life of a typ­i­cal fac­tory –farmed chicken — we’re spread­ing the free-range mes­sage online and in 11 cities across the UK.

Until the 17th Sep­tem­ber, you can fol­low the short life of an inten­sively reared chicken via our  blog at chickenout.tv. See for your­self just what mil­lions of fac­tory farmed chick­ens endure, liv­ing just 39 days between hatch­ing and slaugh­ter in a typ­i­cal over­crowded, bar­ren and win­dow­less shed.

How you can help?

Please encour­age oth­ers to join our cam­paign for a free-range future:

“We need thou­sands of sig­na­tures to con­vince super­mar­kets, farm­ers, gov­ern­ment reg­u­la­tors and any­one else involved in this unac­cept­able busi­ness that they must change”.
