Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat - Part 2 : Chicken Boogaloo.

[lazy gardener]

I used to work with a young woman. She had 2 kids. Couldn't even cook packaged boneless skinless chicken breasts, because... "I don't like the looks of raw meat. Can't look at it". Made her husband do all the cooking. Wouldn't cook eggs for him either... "can't stand to see the insides of them." Had a total melt down when some "chicken juice" spilled on her kitchen floor, and she didn't have a package of bleach wipes to clean it up. Our society has become so very removed from the food web that if there were any kind of interruption in the transportation system, or any other part of the commercial supply of food, most of them would starve to death.

Very true!!! I like to think I'd be able to survive because I'm not too grossed out by it and we have 8 chickens BUT I suck at gardening and I don't know how to hunt or do anything. I'd like to learn though. Not sure I could handle shooting a deer or big game but like even little snare traps for a rabbit or squirrel or something I can't do and suck at fishing. And I don't make my own chicken feed so I would have to stock up before the world caved or steal it after (but against stealing so maybe I'll leave the money there lol), plenty of woods around our house for bedding.... hmmmm.... okay.... maybe I would NOT survive lol unless I moved in with one of you guys

Your BYC friends would take you in!

I am a gardener who is still learning, my husband knows how to hunt and gut and all that good stuff. I think we would be alright. Course, I'd have to rob a store to have a first season's stock of seeds, since I don't save mine. But I would get over that little transgression, I think. LOL we were into that Walking Dead show for a while and sometimes, when I go lock the chickens in in the dark, I plan in my head what I would do if a zombie popped out of the woods! My husband laughed so hard when I told him that.

We will survive!

Yay!

Wow, sounds like you're all set. We like that show too but I don't watch it as much now, my dad loves it.

And yes we will!

And hey maybe we could form a BYC community lol

Like you know how on The Walking Dead they have communities and stuff? We could have our own. But a nice one. None of these bad evil rulers lol

Or maybe not even a community just an alliance

Peanut butter and protein powder. Also a chain saw.

Last year for Valentine's Day I got my girlfriend a machete. it was also the return of the Walking Dead that day as well. she's got me all caught up on that show now.

I too have game planned out how to deal with walkers and hordes. I'm still a little mad about the pit from last season. I think I would have tried to find a big field tractor somewhere and had that waiting somewhere down the road to where they would want to leave walkers to rot. Find a nice open area to set up a few small distractions off to the sides of the road there, and use that big tractor to run over walkers.

I'll hunt, but yeah, he can take it from there (gutting, etc.....) Love our garden though.

Right? It doesn't seem like it would be that hard. Just close the blinds and be quiet! They don't bother you if they don't hear you! Seems like they made it too difficult on the show, but I guess it would have been boring otherwise!

Yeah, heck, in the show right now it's not even really the walkers that are the main threat to survival. Its dealing with the other idiots who think they need to be in charge of everything.
