Anyone have luck catching a feral chicken?? UPDATE: Rooster caught, no hen

Years ago in the early days of my veterinary tech life, I was taking a tour of the fancy new vet hospital that had hired me. I was walking through the postop suite and glanced in at a dog still under the effects of anesthesia, just at eye level with me in an upper cage and noticed a tampon half in/half out of the dog's behind.
"Oh my goodness!" I shouted, " This dog ate a tampon and is pooping it out!"

Post op rectal surgery that is...
Took me a long time to live that one down. :oops:
:lau
 
Ok folks, I'm going to shift this conversation...:tongue We're going to talk about introducing the Granddaughter to Apple Butter. That would be my apple butter. Tonight's dinner was a simple pork chop, fired potatoes, broccoli and biscuit dinner. The little one wasn't so impressed with the fried pork chop. she loved everything else... but what was this hockey puck on her plate? So I added a table spoon or so of apple butter.

Apple butter would make a real hockey puck taste fine!
 
We got her to eat a couple bites of the chop dipped in apple butter, until she abandoned the approach and went directly for the apple butter. Okay, still up for the challenge, I spread it over her biscuit and what does she do, use her fork to pick it off. She eventually finished her pork chop and biscuit, but apple butter is NOT a condiment, its a main course, she'll swear to it. Of course, I'm in a quandary. Need apples as we're down to six pints of apple sauce and almost out of apple juice. I use a steam juicer and a food mill and apples are a two for. I put in my first layer of apples, two cinnamon sticks and a quarter cup of sugar, then three more layers of apples topped with a quarter cup of sugar and the juice of one lemon and let it cook. I bottle the juice and run the remains through a food mill to get apple sauce. And then can it up. Apple butter is apple sauce slow cooked for twelve more hours.
