It might be in my imagination, but the babies already seem happier.

Speaking of babies, how are your poults doing?

They are growing. I don't have them on meat bird feed, so they are growing much slower than my Bourbons did a few years ago. They are happy though. I don't have to keep them in a pen yet.

Typical BS from people who give the term 'animal rights activists' A bad name... I have no time to waste on folks with this level of extreme mentality.

They look great! I think you were right, 1 boy and 2 girls. The girls look really light so they're probably going to be buff like their daddy.

whats that darker one?

Red bronze

Rediculous

The processing is done. I think I get at least a C... I hope! LOL! Getting into what I was saying to Fisherlady made skinning easier. I just ripped that skin right off! Not that I should have done it, but it was easier!
Six boys got done. There is one that has gotten leery of me. He will probably live until the next batch. If not, I think I can get the job done now.
[COLOR=0000CD]THANK YOU, FISHERLADY!!!![/COLOR]

Congrats! I hope to do that one day, but I know it will be hard. Worth it, yes, but challenging.

You are very welcome!!

It was just a good excuse to get to visit with you, the butchering lesson was the fringe benefit, lol

Okay, now that we all know you're an expert, you get to teach classes.

That's so goofy. Yes, they have been bred to lay more, but that's why they are fed a high protein feed with extra calcium and nutrients. Reminds me of when my avian vet said she considered "spaying" her chickens so they could live a longer life. Oh dear....
