Re: Vets

How often does a Vet have a chicken as a patient ? I bet most chickens that need a vet are either slaughtered or put down and disposed of. I don't think "most" Vets have to deal with too much livestock, around here we have 6 local vets and only one deals with livestock and thats typically cows and horses. I would tend to believe that they emotionally detach themselves from what they consider domestic livestock. its thier job to mend sick animals that people bring them not to judge wether or not its food. I really don't think "most vets" look at your average cow,chicken or pig as a pet no more than they would consider a dog or a cat or guinea pig to be food or livestock. I think its a matter of Personal choice. thats my opinion.
