It does indeed.

Welp, just made a three liter batch of liquid castile soap because the recipe (which I quadruple checked and measured out twice) was lye heavy. I did use my problem pot to make it though, I had to liquify a pound of soap after it was lye heavy from cooking in there earlier in the week so I think I need a new cook pot.

So yeah, I have an ungodly amount of soap.

Admittedly the resulting liquid soap is actually pretty nice on the skin, and unscented so I can use it for dang near everything.

If I had goats I'd make soap from the milk. as is we only got chickens.

MC I just imagined the same process to make nut milk being used on chickens and now I need to lie down.

*nod nod*

We didn't have milking goats when we started making soap, so we bought the milk from a neighbor! It makes great christmas gifts!

I don't imagine you can milk a chicken

Post office called, time to go pick up my eggs!

I hatched 3 eggs in the incubator (3 EEs and 1 Marans/Orp cross), the broodies hatched 1 egg (EE), and I also got 9 chicks in the mail. They are all doing great now. I have 13 chicks. Swimming in chicks. My yard is going to be a disaster. They are soooo cute though.
