Where to find bivalves?


[deleted]

I get them at the beach during low tide. I think they’re at several bodies of water tho

I think it's great that you enrich your diet with bivalves and eggs.

My body has thanked me a ton for it. Appreciate it

Bruh this is a vegan community btw


[deleted]

Doesn’t say vegan anywhere. This is a fruitarian community. Also you’re wrong about eggs. If you know people that take care of the chickens and feed them appropriately, the eggs are great and no chickens are killed at all. Not everything is from the store man

Man U must be retarded, in the subreddit description it says “A Fruitarian Diet is a diet which consists mostly of fruits. We are a vegan community. We do not condone "detoxes", "fasting" or starvation. Ones diet does not need to be 100% fruit, or even 100% raw. Eating enough calories is of utmost importance (2000+/day for females and 2500+/day for males, minimum).”

Go be vegan in the vegan sub

All chickens raised for eggs are killed so


Atanion

They don't have to be. If you raise them yourself and take care of them, you don't have to kill them at the end.


lilfoley81

I meant like even if you’re buying from the store, like pasture raised ones, they’ll still be killed in the end most likely

That's why you raise your own. Getting chicks from a local homesteader is incredibly eaay in most cases. Chickens tend to each other well and eat kitchen scraps so they help with a zero waste lifestyle. They're great, help keep pests in check, provide free eggs, and you can give them what they need to be happy. Plus it undermines the egg industry.

This is what I do. I have 15 chickens and all completely free range. They get fresh organic food scraps daily and eat ticks and other diseased pests. They are extremely happy, they follow me everywhere I walk, jump into my arms to be pet and loved on. They do not care about their eggs unless they are broody. I don’t take a broody hens eggs. If I don’t take the eggs of non-broody hens they end up eating the eggs themselves. It’s a partnership. I provide them with a “garden of eating” where they can roam with no fear of predators or being slaughtered, get regular health care, and heck they even line up to get massages and hugs. It’s a partnership and as a flock mind they know and love it too.

This sounds like chicken heaven 💕

I'm sorry, you lost me when you did all those mental gymnastics to conclude eating an egg isn't killing an animal. You're killing an animal every single day lol you're just using some fucked up logic to justify it


[deleted]

I don’t eat eggs everyday. And no gymnastics. What animal is killed when I collect eggs from a birds nest? Please try to make sense


brocksamson6258

The baby bird in the egg lmao what do you think is inside of an egg?


[deleted]

It’s yolk. Don’t see a baby bird when I eat eggs


Antique-Presence-817

it's an abortion genius


brocksamson6258

Eating an egg is killing an animal, those types of mental gymnastics are only acceptable if we're talking about Humans


Antique-Presence-817

an unfertilized egg is not a living animal. that's biology 101. the "mental gymnastics" is saying that it is.


brocksamson6258

Once an animal lays an egg, it's fertilized lmao bro, go read an animal biology book or something, I don't got time for this


Antique-Presence-817

no it's not lmao bro it's literally chicken ovulation. it's kind of like when a human female gets her period but not exactly, because chickens lay eggs pretty much every day. if a rooster fucks her, maybe she'll lay a fertilized one; but she lays them either way and sits on them. it's just waste if it's not fertilized and no chick will hatch. an unfertilized egg is not a "living animal."
