    rspca does nice things, killing a cute chicken is not one of them.

    • +5

      They don't kill the chickens.

      It's RSPCA approved, the breasts are replaced with implants…

    • +3

      This is true. It is bizarre that an animal welfare charity is now an authority figure for the methods of mass-killing animals.

      And is paid for it. And respected for it. Anyone else see a conflict-of-interest?

        While what you say makes total sense.. when you think about it, animals being slaughtered for human food is a fact of life (ex-vego here too btw, and animal lover etc, just being devils advocate for a minute here for the sake of discussion). To turn their backs on a very real fact would be quite ignorant and naive. While, yes, they're meant to exist for the protection of animals and their wellbeing.. which seemingly contradicts any association with animal slaughtering.. I think it's positive that they've still tried to ensure the animals live reasonably (and I use that term loosely considering mass farming practices) decent lives, under the watchful eye of an organisation which has their welfare in mind at least for the time those animals are alive, prior to their deaths which would happen no matter what, with or without their involvement. So really, they're just trying to make some good in an overall quite bleak situation in regards to those creatures.

        So yeah, on one hand it looks like hypocrisy and does make you think "WTF? RSPCA-approved dead animals?" but in the scheme of things, without them stepping in and playing a role in the farming/slaughtering processes, those animals could be much worse off and suffer more, potentially.

        I have some reservations about the RSPCA though. I personally don't think of them as the most noble, worthy-of-unquestioning-admiration and respect, etc. I question everything, or try to. You hear stuff in the media which makes you wonder how good the RSPCA really is.. but really, who do you believe/trust. Lots of agendas out there. But they do some good which is undeniable.

        That's like saying doctors have a conflict of interest when it comes to euthanasia. A logical statement on the surface but in fact most doctors support euthanasia. It's ethics not logic.

        RSPCA just ensures these animals are not completely mistreated before being culled. No organisation is without fault, but it's good to see someone having a crack at regulating the filth in the industry.

        I'm sure the layman won't agree but people need to reconnect with their food sources, starting by paying some extra dollar bills for more ethical meat. If we have to scale back meat consumption so be it. It's a necessary baby step towards sustainability anyway.

  • RSPCA approved is a (profanity) rort BTW

    12kg of chicken! Who are you feeding?

  • What does "RSPCA approved" mean?

    Possible grim scenarios: RSPCA was paid off… or it meet's RSPCAs minimum requirements, which (I don't know and) are the absolute minimum to sustain life…

    Let the downvotes begin.

    • I think they are actually one of the few who adhere to fairly reasonable standards.

      The majority of the others skirt the rules massively and should be avoided but its my understanding that the RSPCA are not one of them.

      Just wish they would sort out the rules and penalise those who break them.

      It means you pay an extra few cents to feel better about exploiting animals and bury any moral consideration you might have for them.

      • +2

        By exploiting do you mean farming and eating animals?

        • Amongst other things, like selectively breeding chickens to grow at rates which cause them chronic suffering, yes.

  • do you have a family of 50?

    If anyone is wondering what RSPCA approved means: http://www.makeitpossible.com/guides/chicken-meat-labels.php

    Cliffs: RSPCA doesn't certify the best conditions for Chickens. There's currently no legal chicken production system in australia. Chicken and eggs with the 'certified organic' logo have the best welfare conditions amongst the more commonly seen certifications. Buy certified organic!

    We can get all nutrients from plants so eating meat is not essential. Having said that I sometimes eat it but I want to know it's origins. The RSPCA are in conflict of interest here.

    • vitamin b12? thought not.

      • Correct, everything but this one. Thankfully B12 is easily obtained from non flesh sources:)

        • method of administration? shoot up like a junkie

        • @insular: I usually whisk up and egg and marmite and jab that in my arm, I also like a good steak from the local farmshop:)

    • +2

      If we're not supposed to eat animals, why are they made out of meat?

      • I just said meats not essential. This chicken thread has ruffled some feathers:)

  • I wish this deal was in Canberra! I'd buy 36kg of it!!!

    • drive across and pick it up. A lot of things come to Canberra across the Hay plains…

      • Drive across? The petrol cost would increase the $/kg to $10-11. Lol.

        I've driven to Broken Hill a few times to see relatives, not keen to pass through Hay again for Chicken…

    I would have thought the only "RSPCA approved" chicken breasts were those still attached to a living, breathing chicken

  • They should also get:
    Iron Chef approved.
    Heart foundation approved.
    Cancer council approved.
    ……..

      I'm waiting for PETA approved !!!

  • Back up to $9 now

    • I was there 1 hour ago, breast fillets are $6.50/kg.
