I gotta ask. How does one eat quail? Doesn’t look like much meat on those bones!!

Hubs has his interview with calfire next Wednesday. Aw man!

You would be surprised how much breast meat they gave! Cook like a cornish hen i guess.

Got another calf. Skinny, missing hair, and I think he’s blind. Alley?

Maybe he’s thin from being blind?

Those eyes do look kinda cloudy. Does he seem skittish at all?

Not blind. They just have that blue cast. They do have limited range on the right side.
If he gets scouts hit him with pen. He’s got pressure marks on knees. I bet he was on concrete. Poor baby.

Yes and no. If I’m moving around then he stumbles over things or bumps into the walls. If I’m still and I touch him he’ll come over and let me pet him. I got very still and quiet and he bumped into me and then squeezed in between me and the hay manger.
