umm I slope it away from me...
my table has a moat that catches the blood and goes to a shallow sink.. a fish/game cleaning table

Ditto. Well, I don't have a table, but I do have a piece of T1-11 on a dog crate, and it is sloped away from me.

X-mas bike!

@BantyChooks' dude brought it to me, I wonder how he got it down the chimney.
Shoot I don't even think my mom left out reindeer treats back then.

Don't weigh them. They fit whole inside a 1 gallon bag about the size of a 5# store bird. Call it 5 pounds.

The last whole ones had to be coaxed into a 1 gallon bag. Call it 7 pounds?

These are 7.5 weeks and early, so I planned to take the largest ones early. These are slower growing than the last ones. I'm either not feeding them as much (cause they empty the feeders no matter how much I put in them) or the mosquitoes REALLY did a number or the heat. And the mosquitoes and flies are worse this fall than the spring. Nasty flies.

Lessons learned today:
The flies go away when it rains on you while processing chickens.
Flies come right back after it stops, but the reprieve was nice.
If you slope your table to drain the water, don't lean up against it while it is raining or your pants get soaked and boots get full.

Is it that messy to where you can't do it in the house kitchen to avoid the flies?

Gator: *been inside all day, have to bribe him out to begin with, then DOESN'T EVEN LEAVE THE STEP. He's been crying/barking like 10, 15 minutes lol it's raining slightly so he's being a baby. Or maybe he doesn't have to go, idk, he hasn't eaten or drunk much if anything today but still.

I hate to spoil things, but he goes through your door like a normal person. Mr. Claus is a very good lockpicker.
