Any kind of torch.

What was the netting made of, nylon?

Doesn't everyone garden in a suit and tie?



I haven't used my big one in a long time. It's a 60+ year old Yardman. That used to be a good brand. I had to replace the motor on it once.

Remind me, what is the crate for?

Gee, multi quote much? LOL!
Yes, the netting was nylon. I did take the one blade off, and the netting came the rest of the way off. The sharp knife helped too.
I don't wear a suit and tie, but may wear a sundress. A full length one would probably get caught. I probably have an old tiller too, but mine are newer fortunately. Both maybe twenty -years old.
The crate will be turned into a holding pen for cockerels I am processing.

Air sacs:








The diagram from Sally's link, plus a few other pictures really helped me understand where the air sacs are. I know understand how when giving subcutaneous fluids I punctured an air sac.

Yes I do. It's the only way I can put my 2 cents in and not have to sit here all day.
No wonder you cut your hands.
Are the cockerels going to be in there overnight? If so, a bottom. Otherwise not.

I always do the subcutaneous injections in the back of the neck. Skin is loose enough there.

So you can go back to school?

I have not decided how long to have them in there. I think I may make it safe enough (and with a run) to let me keep them in there for a few days even. If it means that I can take my time collecting the boys (making sure I have them all). Especially with the baby here, and other things going on. It might be easier to begin putting them in early.
Since I now remember that I have crates, it will have a bottom. Heck, covering walls will be easy. Even adding a run can be simple. Especially since I still have the run I used a few years ago when using a crate for some young turkeys.
