Guest guest Posted May 9, 2001 Report Share Posted May 9, 2001 Chickens bound for pot will get to fly the coop 05/02/01 By MICHAEL SANGIACOMO The 150 chickens at West Side Poultry Inc. are the luckiest cluckers since the great escape in the movie " Chicken Run. " These birds will end up as pets, not potpies. The Cleveland Department of Public Health closed the butcher shop on W. 25th St. for unsanitary conditions and possession of undocumented meat. Then health officials had to decide what to do with the chickens, which could not be sold because they had not been inspected. The choice: Kill them or find homes for them as pets. United Poultry Concerns of Machipongo, Va., offered the poultry sanctuary. http://www.cleveland.com/metro/plaindealer/index.ssf?/xml/story.ssf/html_sta ndard.xsl?/base/cuyahoga/988882203176018.xml http://www.upc-online.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
