Yes, I think we should keep chickens around. They're good to eat, some people think. Though their flesh doesn't appeal to me.  It's too pasty-white and lacking in flavour.  But their eggs are undeniably delicious when boiled, fried, poached or scrambled.

 

That's why we keep hundreds of millions of these birds on our farms.  We wouldn't bother with them otherwise.

 

It's the eggs we value.  If only we could find a way to make the eggs directly, without the chicken stage!

Thank you for ALL of that.  I think that just about covers it.  For YOU
