hope they went well!

as well as can be expected.
I wasn't the one doing the presentations today.
It was an equipment supplier trying to get us to purchase his equipment for an expansion we are planning.
I was the one trying to stay awake for 6 hours!

At least they bought lunch.

eat em! Sell a few. They seem to taste better when ya dunt gotta pick the shot out!
Maybe you should start, Low supply may mean higher demand.
Very common in higher star restaurants.

LOL

I may have to look into that. of course that would mean getting government certified to sell into the restaurant market up here.
I have way to much government involvement as it is.

Revenuers...

yeah, you think they would leave us poor, simple country folk alone already!

on a different chicken information note, I have 7 olive eggers going into lock down tomorrow. All were good at candle last night.

I started adding the addition to my brooder, which will become the nursery for new babies. This is allowing me to borrow a little time until I have to do something different. One of the 2'x4' sections is getting a little cramped with 15 (5 week-old) Barred Rock chicks. As soon as I pick up some construction wire and add a door (tomorrow), the 7 NYD chicks will be moving to the 2nd floor of the brooder... and the older chicks will get to stretch out when I remove the divider on the 1st floor. I hope by the time they outgrow the 4'x4' space it'll be warm enough to move them to an outside pen...

Getting crowded on one side of the brooder:



Removing the divider will double the size of the "1st floor":



2nd floor nursery is framed in. The gate-style door will be in the back:

lunch was good at least. he was from out of town, so I gently suggested we got to one of the better restaurants near my work. cost him near $500 for 6 people, no booze involved.
