1: gorgeous sunrise
2: someone else who doesn’t stare blankly at the term “spliced their ropes”? that was my second job and what I learned to do as a child from my papa!
3: chickens be crazy, but 2 toddlers trumps that by far

2. It never occurred to me people might stare blankly @ that one!

Are houses built on islands more prone to be stolen or something? Guess that's the UK in trouble then.

No but there was some sort of land scandal back in the day. Some bright spark started selling blocks interstate, sight unseen, & when the new owners arrived to inspect found their *land * was under water @ high tide! The banks have long memories when it comes to that sort of thing. Now he's making good money it might be easier.

That's great Bob! It will save a lot of traveling.

Will she be having follow ups and more OT at home?

My Dad taught me to splice rope when I was very young. I don't think i ever had to do it. I wonder if I could now. I should ask him to show me again.

We butchered 8 and of those only two were what my DH described as normal (from a butcher’s standpoint). One bone is longer and the angle of the joint is different than in the meat breeds here. There is basically no way to cut through the joint in a straight line. The two bones of the wingette or paddle (not the drumette) didn’t line up at all with the wing tip in most of my birds. At first I thought it was my inexperience, but Andrew did a
Few too and there is definitely a difference in structure from the industry standard meat breeds.

That is really interesting. I wonder why?
