Well, mom never told me what time, but my 3rd niece was born this morning!

She's so tiny and adorable. I couldn't go with them to the hospital this morning because of how run down I've been feeling lately, but mom too lots of pics so I could see her. I'm going with them the next time they go so I can see her myself.

Sucker got me for the last time this morning. He was in the cage all day and butchered by 4PM. Have to say it goes a lot easier when you are not worried about the skin.

Oh I've had my fair share of those kinds..
course I have no issues with butchering any of the birds.. but those are especially nice to send off to Camp Kenmore

Yinepu I have a harder time butchering the hens because they at least have earned their feed. I don't mind butchering the cockerels I am growing out for meat. I enjoyed taking care of Randy today have to say

lol.. I've been helping with butchering birds since I was 3 when i had to hold the heads down while my mother swung the axe.. also gutted them at 3 cause my hands were nice and small... so I guess that's why it doesn't bother me one way or another

as my husband says.. "they all look like dinner"
