Boy, am I having a bad hair day. Can't find my comb anywhere!
But I have been having fun sitting outside watching the chickens. You just can't get much more excitement than that.
I used to be a taxidermist--well, I guess I am still a taxidermist--but, I had to give it up as a business due to health reasons. Just couldn't work with those big mammal hides anymore. But something I've often wondered about is: How well would life like stuffed chickens sell? I wouldn't raise them just for that, of course, but if I were going to put a few in the freezer or one got killed somehow, I could skin it out, mount it, and put it in a basket or something. The selling price would have to be around 150.00 bucks or so to be worth fooling with. I don't know that I'd get into it, but just wondered what your thoughts might be on the subject and if you think they would be popular or not. I'm sure other people already stuff chickens, I just haven't seen any. I don't get out of the hollow too often.
