Well, the weather here in central Arkansas has been in the 100's with a heat index of over 105. Now rethinking trying to raise Cornish X in the heat, but too late now
Been reading all kinds of ideas how to keep the chicks cool (they are 2.5 and 1.5 weeks old), so last night froze a block of ice in a rubbermaid container to put in the pen. I'm sure some of you can see where this is going, but I wasn't even thinking about what would happen when the ice melted
So I go back out there in the early evening as it's cooling down (about 95
) and there he is "chillin in the melted ice." I wasn't planning on processing any until next week, but since the ice was only recently melted, and he was still very cold, he's going to be dinner in a couple of nights. (or an appetizer anyway!)
Here's how it ended:
