Well me and my generation refused to convert to metric LOL. From the conversations i think we are all about the same ages. They tried to institute Metric when I was in High School if memory serves correctly. After years of learning our measures we were in no mood to do it all again LOL. Fortunately they are internet calculators that can do this for me if needed. .
I had a dear cat with long legs and was incredibly strong. Could/ Would not be "Placed " into a carrier. The only to get her in was to "Net" her with towel or small blanket, wrap her up and "Stuff" her into the carrier. The Vet could get her out but not me (at least if I wanted to keep that hand LOL). She was about 12lbs and no fat

I'm one of those awful half and half people. There is no way I can get my head around a litre of milk for example, or distance in kilometers. But, weight I'll do in kilos and money in decimal.

That is a solid cat. My Dr. Zoidberg was like that. I dreaded taking him to the vet.

What are you whinging about? You've fallen into a group who loves you just the way you are. Forget about the wankers who don't know a good thing when they see it & be grateful you have us!

There you go! Thanks @Ribh you have said it beautifully.

Notch did both his within a couple of weeks. The problem is now he is at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to scrapping with the other roosters.

Speaking of which Sammy has been pink now (well fading into brownish last night) it is amazing how gory a white rooster with even a little bit of bleeding from his comb can look. I am trying to figure out separating Roostie more effectively without being able to use the fence and keep him in another field. He has about 10 lbs on Sammy, and I worry about my poor little guys lungs. He wheezes like a two pack a day smoker walking up a hill when he exerts himself. Worse after I stopped the bleeding and returned Sammy to his girls the two little upstarts he usually keeps under control decided to gang up on him. Roostie got put to bed early, the boys got stuck in solitary, and Sammy got to put all the ladies up on his own.

I’m was still trying to figure out how my fat little Meat bird Rooster got out... well yesterday, he went with the “I can knock this crate over, I outweigh it” technique; the day prior I actually watched him “fly” (running start, big jump, lots of flapping) over the 2’ high repurposed brooders pen wall! He was not “designed” for this, at all... but he managed it much to my amazement. Speaking of which the bones of the wing structure is actually slightly different in the heritage birds and layer breeds here than in the meat breeds. Some of the bones are longer and there is a slight difference in the joint structure of the wrist which makes separating the wing tip (soup bone) from the rest of the wing much harder. I’m wondering where Roostie falls on this spectrum with his low level capability of flight at a whopping 15+lbs of bird.

Wait.... does everyone get warnings about when I am going post something?

I hope I don't accidental alter the future as I am messing with time!
