  • Ha! Alas, as vegans keeping chickens/having access to shells isn’t really an option sadly although I used to love gathering eggs/letting the feathery bastards in and out when I was a kid.

    Obvs as a vegan I probably shouldn’t kill slugs but let’s be honest, fuck them and their friends.

  • Depends if you want to try to justify it (to yourself) or not. I’m vegan, but keep hens as the ones we have, would otherwise have been slaughtered after they stopped being commercially viable at 18 months old. The rescues we have get a happy retirement with us and are very spoilt pets. Granted some vegans don’t like the concept of pets either. Up to you if you want to enter that minefield!

  • Oh yeah it’s def a minefield. Given the option my partner would rescue every farm animal on the planet and let them roam around doing whatever they want.

    It’s a moot point anyway as they’re verboten on our allotment site.
