Peta

PETA is trying very hard to take away your rights. The following quotes are from their website:

"For years, PETA has worked diligently to convince the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) to stop shipping live animals. The USPS is the last remaining major carrier to ship newborn baby chicks and other small animals across the country."

They are trying to incite a letter writing campaign against us with false claims, as is evident by the follow statement:

"Unfortunately, hatcheries have put an immense amount of pressure on the airline and the industry to keep transporting these animals despite exorbitantly high mortality rates and inevitable suffering. Please contact Northwest right away to ask that it stick to its humane policy and not ship baby chicks."

As most of you have experienced yourselves, the vast majority of the birds arrive healthy and happy at their new home. Please counteract this attempt by PETA to take away your rights and a great way of life, The American Family Farm.
