Ahhh, im sick!

Popping vitamin c and drinking tea...
I really dont want to take a shot of tonic...lol
Everyone's laying today though! 4 eggs already then last one hunkered down to lay

they hot some cheery tomatoes amd melon ring yesterday.
Oh! Lol, so I put some cherry tomatoes in the oven last night to make sundried tomatoes....I fell asleep while they were in there...lol
Hubbs pulled them out after he got home, and before he went to bed at like..2am. I cant tell if theyre burnt...but my 18 month old is gobbling them up! I hope I have some left for bread! Lol

I am so sorry! Rest, Rest, Rest, Rest

Wow...I'm surprised that rambling post even made sense! Lol

Thank you Lisa! I've got the kiddos napping so I am soaking it up!

Does anyone on here process themselves? I know there's a thread, but I was just curious. Im really thinking about getting a broiler or two, just to see if I could. I'm afraid I'd chicken out though (sorry..bad pun not intended). Worse case scenario I found a place that now processes for the public, but they're about a 45 min drive at least.

I would be interested in how to process yourself also. I think it would be hard to describe it since you are gone.

I think you need to go rest some more.

Ken and I processed turkeys a couple of years ago. I believe Harley would be able to give you a better idea.

Just don't sign anything while you are loopy. I have done the same thing. It was around the holidays one year and I was running a high temperature (unusual for me). My sister had e-mailed me wanting to know how I was doing. I wish I could remember how I worded it, but she said I told her my temperature was 350 degrees.

Your sister must have died!

Brynn, I know a guy that would be happy to talk you through it. He lives over by Myers park kind of. He's the guy I talked to about chickens. Really nice guy and loves to educate people.

I hope you guys are feeling ok!!

 

[Brookshire11]

I think im feeling better...lol

Lisa, and I thought I was out of it!
350????

Laurie, I might have to do that and try and set up a time. Maybe he would let me observe? Josh and mine's schedules are so mixed matched, its difficult to find time where I can do my own thing without having kiddos. And I don't think they're ready to watch that lol

I did the math and it SEEMS cheaper to do it myself, rather than buy. And thats with chick prices, shipping, feed, AND processing fee just in case.
We eat a decent amount of chicken and I know most of it is just pumped full of hormones. And even the natural ones aren't raised as well.
We'll see.
I can stomach the pictures and videos, but its different when its your own hands.

I'm rolling!

 

[henless]

I've been sitting all day-2 jobs. One from 830-530 and straight to the evening one. 6-10

I'm wiped. I won't even get home to get the eggs today.

I bet you were tired! Do you have to pull a double often?

I hope you got a good night's sleep.

Okay you know I need the rain. Roofers are suppose to come tomorrow, so don't send me any rain for the next 3 days.

You guys have a great day today!

Lisa

Did the roofers show up? Hope they got a lot done.

Oh boy...maybe the head congestion is making me loopy..hahahah!!!

So sorry you were sick, I hope your feeling much better now.

I'm rolling!

Wow! That's scary how much those two look alike!!


We lost internet service sometime Sunday morning. They finally got it fixed sometime today while I was at work.

We ended up not fixing breakfast this weekend, but I just had breakfast for supper. Look what I got out of 2 of Arnet's eggs:



They sure were good!! I've got about 7 more of those in the fridge.
