California - Northern

You can Fry them when they are little. It might take a couple but do save the bones to make chicken broth from them.

Have you heard of drop sensors placed of packages? The Shipping experiment thread had a post about them.

Like the one's they use in the high school "over the weekend - homework baby" sensor? That is such a cool idea. I don't know what you could do about them being dropped though.... I'll go check it out.

I totally just sat down to pee and it shook the whole toilet! lmbo! Next time I'll just hold it and see to the animals first. I have never ever ever in my life been on a toilet that moved. Like ever. That was the weirdest thing ever. 

That is funny!! My hubby felt it up here in Pollock Pines, 3200 ft., but I did not.

So what do they do with the Roosters at a Rooster Rescue? From the sound of it they let them go in Fair Oaks!

But seriously..... how can they rescue all the Roosters that are around?

Ron you mentioned something about a Processors support thread or something? I have identified about 9 boys at least so far in my hatch of 26. I need some room and they are 4 weeks this weekend......Some are a little more aggressive than others.

I have a CL and an OE that looks like a CL and about 3 MFL boys for sure, and probably a Polish Roo that is going to be really pretty I think.

Anyone looking for any of those types of Roo's? I am going to post on Craig's List now and see if I can find homes for some. If I can't then I have to take them somewhere because I can't do the deed. I also don't have the knowledge.

Yes, Sally Sunshine started it. There is great information on this thread:

It is called a shockwatch and it trips at a preset level to show that a package has been subjected to whatever level of G force the sensor is set for:

It sounds like it could be helpful for shipping hatching eggs.

Urg.... lost another Jaerhon. Sand Hill shorted me two (made up for it by sending extra FJ) , two died so now I am down to 1. If color is an indication of sex, I would say it is a girl. The two that died were much much lighter. The Flame Jaerhons are doing well. I think I have 6-7 flames, including the one I put under a broody for a spanking.

Hate to say it but as soon as you can tell the better if you're not planning on eating them. My husband just says "ok mark the boys for the long walk" but it's better then later on.
