UMM hotdogs. I was just like any other kid - eating them raw.......hmmm never killed me yet. Thank goodness for soy to fatten the hogs and get some scraps for hotdogs!
People are afraid of soy but strap themselves into pieces of sheet metal and plastic and propel themselves at 70+ miles an...
I am still waiting for the guys name who free ranges his hogs in Missouri (Salatins partner)i......I would find it hard to believe he could beat the $11/head profit and have better returns with the coyotes around here. He probably supplements them with SOY !
Well, I see it is off and going again. Good. I enjoy these types of discussions.

I was thinking of trying to plant some small <1 acre patches of either alfalfa and or red clover to let the chickens peck around in and get insects from this year. I have a few acres of fescue that is just mowed and I thought about establishing a "food plot" for my hens. Has anyone done this...
I have a flock of around 50 brown egg hens that are free range and just wondered how some of you know how to cull your hens that are not as good at producing. I dont spend much time with them and just collect the eggs twice daily, so I have no idea which ones lay/don't lay. Do you cull based...
