		<description><![CDATA[Just say no to giving your children or grandchildren some chicks for Easter. Chicks are living breathing animals. They are not toys to be later discarded. The same advice about not giving puppies or kittens to kids or adults as gifts for Christmas &#8212; also applies to Easter chicks. Someone must be responsible for chicks. [...]]]></description>
