Thanks for this thread.
Sometimes I find myself working near a rather preachy vegan in my off farm job, and reach the head : brick wall interface all too quickly.

I'm always polite - far more polite than preachy is to me. The others cringe and, from my point of view at least, tiptoe around and fawn. Preachy has a way with words, unfortunately.
Not fun.

I did learn something new about vegans, though, that the Forum might like to know ...

Vegans are permitted to keep livestock. Preachy would have no problems with keeping laying hens. Hens lay eggs - it's what they do. It is permitted to eat eggs laid by hens kept by a vegan.
When asked about what diet was right for a vegan hen, the reply was "vegetarian". When asked about how to guarantee a vegetarian diet, the reply was to "control its area so that it couldn't get at insects or worms".
When asked about the best breed for a vegan hen - had one been recommended? Are there vegan poultry breeders working on developing the ultimate egg producer?, muggins received a surprisingly old fashioned look.

The only cheering episode in weeks.

Best response to vegans is "f ck off". I've no time for cultists.

Vegan hens, whatever will they think of next!

Well done @primmiemoo you must have the patience of a saint to put up with 'preachy '. Better to give them enough rope to hang themselves as they say!

Are they allowed to worm the hens if they become ill?

So now you have the perfect comeback - just look pitying ly at him, and say "But of course, you're not a commited vegan, are you," and enlarge on the theme along the lines of "I can't say I blame you for being so weak willed; it must be hard to maintain such a thoroughly unnatural diet."

Nothing so irritating as sympathy from someone who clearly sees you as being a failure when you thought you had the moral high ground.

If you could practise tutting and the slow head shake it might help too.

Oh, and try and be overheard explaining to other people that X is actually only pretending, and he actually eats animal products...

Ah, battery hens, then.

would be better to chuck em some packets of pork scratchings

I find it very surprising that our local abbatoir hasn`t had any problems though they are a very discreet unit with a few cattle in lairage and very little external advertising.

Run `em over on the grounds of animal welfare............the irony will kill them.

Shirley it would be the bull bar ........................

@primmiemoo ask them if it’s ok to eat eggs from vegan hens, what is their opinion on maiden milkers?
For the “only their babies should drink it” brigade I (and I’m sure many others) have had a cow that suckled herself and others that others that happily finished any milk the bucket calves left over.
When mum had too much milk off our goat she fed it to the hens - they LOVED it.
I love the idea that vegans support battery hens

Strap a BBQ on the back of the pickup and have a wee cook up on the way past.

Fascism is alive and well, this time wearing sandals instead of Jackboots. It seems the unwashed lefties always need to find something to protest about instead of getting a job unless colouring in all of those placards is their idea of having one.

Lots of talks by Allan Savory on YouTube, well worth watching.

What an utter bunch of fannies.

What I don’t get is why these f**kers aren’t in work

I think their diet is affecting their higher brain function and hearing, ”I'm wearing a 100% cotton, oh yeah the high-vis is probably nylon" "We don't come here to engage with you we are purely here for the animals, oh he came over as you were filming us," couldn't catch the last bit but it sounded like he didn't really have an answer to the fact that they were filming her in the first place.

You have pigs banging on the trailer squealing but that is somehow not them but different ones inside. They remind me of the ones who we use to warn not to stroke our old sheepdog Murphy as he snarled at them but would get the response, "Oh animals love me, I'm a very animally person, they all love me especially as I give them a run by the ears." It was usually followed by a squeal as he bit them as we warned them he would.

I do like vegans who wear leather clothing, belt & trainers. It's like shooting fish in a barrel, only more fun!
