You cant feed one of your eggs from your free range birds even hard boiled. You cant give them a carrot if its been in your kitchen but you CAN feed them animal products if its in the commercially produced feed. I rest my case. MADNESS

The only positive thing I saw in the article was the recognition that omnivores do best with some animal protein in their diet.
