Self Sufficient Queen
It is a good thing if it is hard. That will make you more compassionate. I participate in processing day (don't kill, don't quite watch the kill....avert my eyes at the moment) and make sure that the animals don't get stressed and don't know what is coming. I usually catch the chickens and turkeys myself and carry them over to my dad. I take the time to hold them gently and stroke them and talk to them reassuringly. It helps me a lot to know that they will not have a bad day, only a bad moment....maybe. Often they don't know what hit them. Because I am the one that cares for them daily, they are not as stressed if I'm the one to catch and carry them. I focus on the fact that I am eating meat that has ZERO cruelty involved....very important to me.
For the pigs, they got their favorite, a few boiled eggs. While they were eating them, BAM. They had a very good life.
Can't bear the thought of goats, though.....my blind spot. I'll happily eat someone else's goat, but not mine.
