Hi folks, noting this thread for any people concerned about smoke from all the fires. I know CSU Sac put out a bad air health advisory, so the smoke seems to be traveling far. Sending best wishes to any of you in the many fire zones.

smoke was bad yesterday but better by this afternoon. The central valley below Sacramento may be getting more smoke from the wind driection that we are

I don't know too many people that will pay 5.00 for a hen.

Yes! I have been pressure roasting them in an instant pot, removing the meat and then pressure cooking the carcass for stock.

Last weekend I used some stock made this way as the base for cream of mushroom soup. It made a big difference!

I need to get an instant pot some day.

I will keep my eye on this for sue!

I have not hatched Barnevelder eggs yet!

They have the best temperament of any breed I have ever had. I've never had a mean barnevelder. Really great broodies too!
