I love to watch the Olympics but it seams like I never have a chance to watch it. When I do get a chance the sports I really like are not on. I love the luge, ski jumping and bobsled. So last night I set the DVR to record everything. When I do get a chance to watch it I can fast forward to...
I raised (4) broad breasted white hens this year. I get them from the 4-H. They are given to the 4-H kids to raise to show at the State Fair. The ones that are the lightest after several weeks they get rid of. I generally get 2 but I took 4 this year. I sold 2 after processing.
They were...
The ground will be void of any vegetation and covered in poop. After a good rain the grass will come back and be dark green and much thicker than it was before. In a year you will never know you had chickens on it.

If you just wait a few months the supply will catch up with demand and the prices will fall back in line. Demand is crazy high now because people are afraid of what is to come if Obama and Feinstein get their way.
When Obama was elected the first time we had the same thing happen...
I got Thanksgiving, the hen turkey, out of the freezer on Sunday On Thanksgiving morning we injected it with a whole bottle of Creol Butter seasoning before we deep fried it. It turned out wonderful.
I took it to mama's house around noon. We left it wrapped in foil. I think mama put...
My turkeys were a day old on June 22nd. I could definately tell it was time because they could hardly get around the week or so prior to having them processed. However one would still fly up to the roost pole. The other one never did roost. It just laid on the floor in the corner of the...
I sent my BBW hens to the processor on Wednesday. Got them back today. They ranged from 16 - 21 lbs .. I did not keep the giblets. We had 14 processed and I got all the livers packaged seperately in 4 different packs. I have never ate turkey livers. Hope they are good.

I put my camera back up last Sunday at my son's stand. I am sooo looking forward to checking it on Saturday. There are new rubs all around the stand.
I will move it to another stand on Saturday after swapping the memory card.
I will post the good pictures Saturday night.

To maximize the size of the broiler they must be on a broiler ration. Plain and simple. You complained about the size of your bird and then when people tell you what is wrong then you get upset.
I start my broilers on a turkey starter and grower. Then to a broiler ration. The higher...
If you have a facebook account can you please find Randolph County Partnership for children and click like on their page and then go to their photos and click on camp close-up and find the little boy with the turtle painting and like his picture??
It is my son, Curtis, and he is trying to beat...
Also if you shoot them and kill them you need to retrieve them. If not in a few days you have a stinking rotten floating mass of nastyness.
If you are going to grab a turtle you need to grab him by the tail or one hand on each side of the middle of their shell. If you grab the shell near...
My father used to use the following method. If you have a tree close to the pond tie a wire leader to the tree and then to a hook. Bait up the hook with a piece of chicken fat or a piece of cut blue gill. Toss the baited hook in the water. Come back later and collect your turtle. They are...
Double bag it and put it in the trash. My buddy has been doing it for years with the deer he kills. he just bags up the guts in one bag. He cuts up the bones with a saw and bags them up to. The city has never been the wiser.

Years ago a farmer I know had bears destroying his corn crop. He called a wildlife officer. He sent a biologist out to survey the damage. The bears would clear about a 1/4 acre of corn and pile it up. They would come back in the winter to eat the corn in piles. Smart animals.
The...
