Got a little more information on this Jones processor up here at Gideon and
wanted to pass it along.
If you want him to process your birds, you have to have an explicit appointment
as the VET has to be there to do a health inspection on your birds before
they come in. And, this price of $1.50 per bird only includes, inspection,
dressing and dropping back in your ice chest. They will not be bagged and
frozen. If you want your birds chilled, bagged and frozen, the price is
$2.00 per bird. (This is what Raymond Jones told Bill out at the facility.)
And, of course, we all know, the birds he is raising are fed a special blend
of feed that he has the feed mill grind "just for his purpose". And, it's not
available to the public. So, you can't expect your birds to grow this fast.
Anybody besides us, Sooner/Madison, and Dandelion/Corey/Liz gonna be
showing birds at Fayetteville? Bill talked to them yesterday and sounds
like it's gonna end up being a good sized show. As of yesterday morning,
they had just over 500 entries and am sure more will come in today. Today
at mid-night is the deadline.
Still waiting for some sunshine here..........Na-Na needs it !!!!!!!!!!!! At my
age.......I already have enough wrinkles...........
Have a good one !
