Don't bathe or put on any good smelly stuff. That way you will be there but no one will want you to be sociable.

Lol! No I did not bathe... I don't want to be too presentable...

@Alaskan
So sorry you had to go through that. Sounds like you need some chocolate and ice cream Rx. Gooey chocolate cake works, too.

@chickadoodles
Nice looking turkeys. I use the large plastic bags, too, but stick a vacuum cleaner hose in it to suck out the air. Works for meat birds in gallon bags, too.

@bamadude
Hooray! You're back! We worry that your remedial sentences get longer and longer. Don't want to lose you! Straighten up and fly right... or at least fly under the radar.

I am experiencing PUI right now.

We just got back from the 3rd Annual Southwest Bacon Fest...DH's choice of weekend activities. We had VIP passes AND made friends with the main sponsor the night before at his Stumbling Steer Brewery where we stopped in for dinner. I have drunk a very large amount of his custom batch of bacon bourbon vanilla stout before noon our time. VIP passes meant we got in early so as to avoid the long lines at the vendor booths, our choice of seven items, and got reserved shady seating. Good eats! Driving in I had to laugh at the carloads of men. (Well, bacon and nine breweries in attendance. What do you expect?) I finally got to wear my "Praise the Lard" T-shirt with the pig on it....folks loved it. Anyway, the eats menu is:

Thanks Peep great idea! Done!

Hennible, I just put 2 of my 3 broad breasted turkey in the freezer because they will break their legs from the weight. I have cut back on their food to keep them alive to get them either sold or in the freezer. The one hen I have left I am going to keep her on a diet and try to breed one of my standard bronze tom's to her so I will hopefully get a larger bird with out being to large! If you want to keep some hens you should get heritage turkey. They can live 10 yrs or so.

That said I have been giving my broad breasted turkey enough feed for one meal a day so they could stay alive and as you can see from the pics they are huge!


Here they are look at the feet on the tom.

That is a great tip.... But doesn't work here..... Lots of stinky people

Delicious looking. Thanksgiving is right around the corner.

Not something we celebrate, bama. And for Christmas we eat ham, like it's supposed to be done.
