EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

Ok going to try that on next bunch

For any birds we grill we will usually do a light marinade of some kind but nothing to serious. The meat isn't like anything you can buy in the store.

no salt? at all? interesting

If I soak them in an ice bath, which I usually do, I add a lot of sea salt.

Nope never salted them. We've eaten anything from 1.5 yrs old down to about 20 weeks. Haven't had any issues.
Just extra boys or mean boys from the flock.

I have a lot of extra boys to process in the next couple months. No exact head count but probably about 20.
They are DP birds though.
I've raised both CornishX and Freedom rangers a few times.

If I smoked them I would. Want to get a smoker one of these days.

It isn't fancy but we have a smoker. It has 2 levels for meat. The best bird came out when I smoked a mature rooster slowly on the bottom and a rack of baby back ribs above it.

...
I checked preferences, and I see lots of checked boxes except the the one at the bottom that says "tag to text" or something like that. Hey, I never said I was the brightest crayon in the box!

Maybe not but you are a light color.

If applied properly yes. Google z-bar Home Depot and Lowes has it. There's even a you tube video on application.

I understand applied correctly! We bought a house in Albuquerque and found a roof leak about a year later when the patch had aged. The roofer had applied the valley flashing in the wrong order, the ignorant person started at the top and the overlap was wrong.

You didn't take a left at Albuquerque?

Too good.

The amount of time it takes me to think and my mouth to spout is .005 seconds. Lol

Take a breath.

Ouch. A reason I do most of the work on my house. (read that as all the work).
I had to completely rebuild the roof of my front porch because the brick step flashing wasn't done correctly. It wasn't horrible but why the wood rotted after about 20 years.

because that would have taken me to Juarez

Yea all of mine have been DP birds. Smoking ribs over top of a bird would be delicious
