| Yes, I would like to know also.Hey Erb,Hows it going? Hey Dadummy whats this about fast growth chickens. I was wondering a loud why my children shot up taller than me at such a young age .I have a 12 year old that is as tall as me as weighs more.Both my daughters weigh more than me. Some one i think it was dear hubby,said it all the stuff they put in the meat.No joke,as tall as my youngest is she had a friend over that made her look like a dwarf.What do you all think,is it what he thinks? |

| I think the growth hormones that they put in meat, I think that it affects the way our children growth. |

| OMG! Thats sounds awful.Some kids are growing at an alarming rate. I am 5 ' tall .My generation did not grow this fats. There is definitly something wrong somwhere.Little girls at 11 having enormous boobs and having their monthly at that age .It is to rushed where is their childhood.I don't think the harmones in meat have anything to do with 6 year olds coming home from school and talking about who is going out with who these days though. |

At first I was really grossed out by the thought, but once you read into it, it sounds like it is better actually. see below
Quote:
Cloning animals is a reliable way of maintaining high quality livestock to supply our nutritional needs. Identifying and reproducing superior livestock genetics ensures that herds are maintained at the highest quality possible.
Animal cloning offers great benefits to consumers, farmers, and endangered species:
Cloning allows farmers and ranchers to accelerate the reproduction of their most productive livestock in order to better produce safe and healthy food.
Cloning reproduces the healthiest animals, thus minimizing the use of antibiotics, growth hormones and other chemicals.
Cloning can be used to protect endangered species. For example, in China, panda cells are being kept on reserve should this species' numbers be threatened by extinction. |

And it currently costs approx $16,000...not what I'd call cost-efficient.

So the more I read the better that I feel about this, from what I understand that it will be done on the farm, had one website explain the cloned animals as the "rock stars of the barnyard". They would still live in a farm environment, they would go through the same process as far as I can tell, the cloning will come in during the artificial insemination, just like they do now, only the good genes would be used. Better quality meat, fewer sick animals, etc.
If you think about it, take a look at what we have already done with breeding, I remember the first time I seen a beefalo, half beef and half buffalo. Then you have the turkchicks, which is half turkey, half chicken. So in a sense we are already breeding against what god intended and have been for quite some time. Google these animals, they exist. |

| Wholly Molly! I never knew that .I have heard once about the beefalo but not the half chicken and turley.I had a chicken once that had a turkey neck. All the chickens hated it and chased it into a wood pile .Poor thing never came out .Guess it died in there. I don't think they should be breeding againt nature though. |

| I will just become a vegetarian and everyone else can do thier own thing we use to raise our own maybe ill go back to that. I may not have a lot of time in this world but I really feel sorry for the younger people they will have all this garabage to filter through. they will all probably be heavy from all the steroidsand if the cloneing process is anything like the chicken processing plants yuk I hope they all watch and pay close attention to the effects. everyone should do a lot of reserch to see the facts. |

| Well, I am really bad about not eating things unusual. If it wasn't served to me as a child I want no part of it. That is as far as meat goes. I will try other food as long as it is not a strange meat. I have heard that people eat raccoon.opossum ,whale and all kinds of strange things.They are strange to me anyway. They eat goat,turtle and squirrel.My hubby eats those, but not me. Frogs too. My sister loves frog legs and even that was served as a child but I won't eat it. What about snake,NASTY! |
