Yep, those scrawny looking things are definitely ready for butchering...
Some people, just WOW.

Yeah.

And they are just selling some "wild" pig? Weirdos 

I would buy a wild female pig, just becuase of the genetics and the fact that a wild pig has crazy foraging skills and could pass that on to offspring.

Hmmm... Shows what I know about pigs!!

Well if you think about it wild pigs can get nearly as big as domestic but all on forage, no supplements or anything, just think if you had a pig like that you could save so much on feed even if you were feeding them daily.

12 chicken feet

Free 12 chicken feet fresh from tonight. Please don't use these for black magic, otherwise we're good.

That's a good one!

Anytime I see chicken feet for sale, it makes me thing of our crazy dog. This living garbage disposal eats sticks, digs up small trees for snacks, and devoures animal poop from several species. So when we processed our 1st chickens, we were told how much dogs love eating the feet. A truly natural & beneficial dog treat! Sounded great..... Until I tried to give it to our dog. He looked at me like I was asking him to eat a rock. I dropped one to the ground & he didn't run to pick it up. So I tried to hand it to him to show him it was OK & he still didn't want it. I eventually got him to gingerly take one. He laid down in the grass & just stared at it for a while. I ended up throwing the chicken feet out.

That could be a good thing. If he did like them, he could have been the first dog in history to brake into a coop and only eat the chicken's legs! Since that's the one part he had approval to eat. (I'm just being silly. )

Wow, my cats are terrified of even our bantam chickens. They wouldn't even think of going after the ducks. Those cats could be good pets for a farmer who doesn't raise birds and doesn't have anyone else around him that does either.
