I agree with eliminating a food if it is causing problems... I tend to think that it might be more what is in the feed.... type of corn etc grown and used....and any corn grown commercially is usually "roundup ready" which does have the gene spliced in so that the corn plant is not killed when they use roundup on the corn to kill other weeds... so I do agree with that... Corn makes up a good portion of feed, so it may well be that rather than any antibiotics possibly used in chicken feed/water... I would be much more likely to blame it on the corn and wheat and other grains mixed in the feed as they are mostly all sprayed with some sort of "chemical" ... which I also do not like being done...
On that note, there is a "roundup ready" type of alfalfa, and trials have been done and it has been found that most cattle HATE it and will not eat it if given any alternatives...

Read a little about lactose in milk/dairy... did not know that butter has most of the lactose removed in the process of making it...in the whey and gets poured off... and butter made from fermented/soured milk should be better than sweet cream butter... I mostly only made butter from milk brought to room temp and not specifically soured...
Also, greek yogurt is supposed to be much more tolerated (and I do not like it near as much as regular yogurt).... and soft cheeses have more lactose than hard/cured cheeses... but sour cream is much better tolerated/less lactose...
And goats milk has less lactose so better handled by people with mild lactose intolerance...

Very interesting... glad your situation prompted me to look it up....Learned a few things...
Thanks for that.

I love learning new things, even if the facts contradict what I was taught in the past.

Goat milk also has lactase to counter lactose, is A2A2, plus smaller fat globules, so promotes easier digestion. 🙂
When I stopped at Goat Milk Stuff in Indiana, about 10 years ago, I took the tour and heard about the fat globules being smaller. I'd forgotten, but you brought it to mind.
