The Rebbe made it very clear that when it comes to Halachic publications one should not confuse the readers with multiple opinions.
This author and this publication always do just that.
It may make them look more prestigious but it has a negative effect on the readers.

I thought I heard that the Rebbe said instead of feeding the birds we eat the kasha ourselves on Shabbos. Did anyone else hear this?

Is a person allowed to eat birds (like chicken, turkey or duck) on shabbos Shira?

Someone told me that it would be hypocritical to feed the birds as an act of gratitude and then eat them.

The Rebbe added that he did not see the Shver putting food for birds outside. Therefore talking t0 the children about it and showing it to them on the shabbos table is good idea but not to put it out side.

The food I put out for the birds on Shabbos is unintentionally eaten by another animal that does not depend on people feeding it? Thank you for shedding light on this custom.
