I didn't ever think you could do this with roosters. I do this (except I use a frame to strech the skin) with goat kid hides.

Yes I have viseted the old Seattle Parrot House. I used to sell Cockatiels to them.

They were all about disease control there. It was a cramped but knowledgable place.

Robs party went well. And being the only sobre adult on the property was pretty entertaining too! My sister got the bright idea to take a drunken ride... Amazingly it didn't end in desaster. Both the pony and the paint were pulled out at 11 PM... Poor things. Only person to fall off was my sister, so all was good. We did have one person get tangled up in the hotwire fence... She shorted my box out when she hit the wire. So no "shock" unfortunately.... Now I have to go out and figure out what exactly she did, and how to fix the fence... Thankfully its not raining, but the sun is decieving. Its still really cold out...

So here I sit.

Sure... just know I don't pluck :} I just peel skin off since I don't eat the skin. every once in awhile I'll hand pluck but not often and mainly only when the bird is for roasting.
As you know I just started up with chickens again so last time I plucked was erm.. yikes 20 years ago?? oy I'm getting old

You need to make a Whizbang chicken plucker.

Our gatherings are always fairly small. Usually no more than 12-15 people. BUT my family tends to be a bit wild, so it is always something. Had a nice little fire out in the grazing paddock, music, food, drink, and good people! Its always entertaining for me, as I don't drink, I get to sit back and drunk sit. lol "You know, baby sit, but instead of kids its drunk adults." lol

Well maby in the future we can set up a gathering. But I would have to clear it with DH first.

Yep, I get the babysitting the drunks...that is what my DH gets to do. I used to be able to put away the margaritas...not any more...sucks to get old. Anymore they give me heartburn. Cant do them. Now I do one GOOD one at the local Mexican Restaurant about 3x a year.

I used to drink, but over the years my body has decided to reject ALL alcohol. Every damaged/arthritic joint in my body feels like its on fire the second I take a sip... So its just better for me to not drink, its not worth the pain.

are they looking for any particular breed? This one that I was going to sell is an EExRIR, but I also have an EExbrahma that is young and handsome that I'd be willing to part with...

oh, and thanks

I can't drink tequila/margaritas anymore either. They make my stomache ache. It's unfortunate because I do like margaritas. I used to be a bartender in a mexican restaurant and so can make a pretty good margarita

They just give me such heartburn any more and they do bother my tummy too. But, I really-really love a good margarita. Getting old really stinks.

If ever we have a BYC - Washington get together, I will have to take a TUMS and have you make me a margarita.
