Puppy says hi. Wounds are healing quickly, she'd be back outside already if it weren't for the flies.


She's the most friendly bird I have - she was the first chick named, because when I came to the edge of the brooder as early as <1 week she came running to me. She knows her name and to this day comes running when I yell "Puppy" and then looks up at me waiting for me to pick her up (usually because she has escaped her paddock again

). She loves having her earlobes rubbed - likes having her belly rubbed as well.



Really glad I built that brooder and left it put together - it's been great to be able to put injured birds in there at a moment's notice, and the increased height makes it easier to check on them.

Would this work as a chick waterer?

Or would the little boogers get stuck somehow just to spite me?

Good For you Dax!!
and its still early in the day

Yeah, but I started them and it took me five hours to get the ten birds from kill to fridge. I only stopped to feed the critters and milk a goat. I hope I don't get sick from them. ThoughvI washed them salted them let them sit for five minutes and then rewashed and bagged them. Now I just need to read about how long they sit, how people package them to freeze, and if there is anything else I need to do.

BTW does anybody know a way to get the lungs out without shredding them sort of on the ribs?

Good morning everyone.

She is cute, and the sick pen,/brooder sounds like a good idea.

Quote: Good job! Took me 5 hours for 10 as well. Did you put them on ice after processing? That's the best way to get them as cool as possible as fast as possible.

I broke down and got a lung scraper tool, makes it a lot easier, but on one I culled recently, I was able to pry them out with my fingers and some patience by rolling them downwards, if you don't want to get one of the lung tools (they're a bit pricey). Took some practice.
