Thanks George!

I was trying to have some fun with the topic.

I hope it was amusing, even if misguided.

I was to, clearing confusion by adding it. . Here, let me insert a smiley. LOL. Where are they? OK. I see them.

As I was closing up just now, it dawned on me that perhaps you thought I had cooked them?

No no no.

Raw, all the way!

Don't tell my daughter that I used my blender... even if I was to sterilize the thing now, she would never lay hands on it again!

I am going to tell her. LOL.

One of my Bielefelders started crowing at 6 weeks of age. Most of my cockerels have (thankfully) waited until 14-16 weeks.

Every now and then, you will get one like that. It sounds funny at that point.

this is not a criticism, I just wondered why you worked this hard instead of feeding the birds "rat tartare." ? Mine seem greatly entertained by playing tug-of-war with snakes/lizards/table scraps.

I keep an old blender/food processor just for the chickens. You can pick one up for a few bucks at a thrift store or a garage sale.
