The topic did need to be locked. People were getting way too passionate on both sides and it had gone way off topic anyway.
We have processed meat birds once and I thought I couldn't do it at all. But hubby and son did the deed, a friend plucked and my mom did the cutting. By the end of the day, Destiny and I actually jumped in a bit to help. (not the killing though). It wasn't near as bad as I thought it would be! We have a rooster right now that it wouldn't hurt my feelings a bit to put straight in a pan! But, we would like to replace him first since he is our only buff orpington roo that we have.
Sad news about the baby kittens, apparently during the remodel/door open/ carrying in sheet rock, one of the toms (I assume) got into where they were and appears that he tried to pull one out of the basket. Destiny found it dead, with its back legs and tail torn off.
I am just feeling awful about it, it was one of the black ones. I hate to think one of my babies would do something like that, but goes to show they are capable. The final 2 are on lock down in Des' room, door only open for Mama to get in and out just in case someone sneaks in again. She usually does keep her door shut, but was leaving it open because of the kittens.
The little kitty we took in a few weeks ago went 20 miles south to live with my sister yesterday. She lost one of her long time beloved cats, so Zee went down to see if she would fit in with the remaining 2. I am not sure how it will work out. I told her she could bring her back if it didn't. I no sooner got home and didn't realize how much we all missed the mischievous little thing!
And oooo I love photos! We picture adventure often and love to take pics of everything! I just try to refrain from posting so many so I don't bore everyone!
