Need big, wider cones.
Let us know, might have some scrap around. . . I remember saying, save that, that is perfect for kill cones. Save it for DS, he can make it for us. . .many moons ago. . .

Hmm...
that's not what I saw. I just saw little segments like little white pieces of rice. 3 or 4. The same thing I saw in the poop.

Hi Beckyhsinglsc,

The ones pictured in eggs are round worms.... Never heard of tapeworms making it into chicken eggs before.

Thanks Blessed! - I'm kind of a pack rat - NOT a hoarder!

I've got them blanked & creased.

We are going to the grand-baby's soccer game and then to Tracy's.

I'll roll them up at the soccer game and install before the deed.

I'm feeling pretty pensive about this whole thing...

NEWS FLASH!

Mikey is a wuss!

The Associated Press reports that "somewhere in the middle of Mesa a loud girlish scream was heard." Evidently the notorious "Black Thumb Mike", killer of Moringa trees everywhere, was not suited to killing and processing chickens. He eluded athorities with a lame excuse but was heard to say, "I'll grow em but I ain't take'n em to freezer camp!"



Tammy on the other hand is gonna be a pro.

She's staying with Tracy & finishing the other 6 while I take Walt to work.

It's gonna be her decision whether or now we do meat birds in the future. (see line 4)

Yeah, it's pretty gross. I remember doing it as a kid, but we didn't have all the fancy equipment. My sister and I plucked, my dad did all the other stuff.

well the BW roo (Junior) mated successfully with at least two hens. Still no crowing... guess we'll see how it goes.
