Yes we eat what we grow even if someone else leaves it in our coop!!

Do not look if skin and flesh bug you. The boys had a vengeance out to get some roosters that were pecking the hens to pieces. Someone dropped them in our hen house without telling us and so when one of the boys hens died they knew what they had to do. Get them and eat them. This is the boys plucking off the feathers after dipping in boiling water. They brought them in and floured and baked them and ate them so fast I did not get a pic of them with their eats.

Mc and C boy did the most of the dirty work while Dad taught them how to skin clean and defeather. The pretty girl J took the photos again and stayed out of the helping process somehow. Z boy looks over his Dads shoulders at one point seeing how the whole process works.

There is a chicken in my Bathtub!!!!

School has got to get started soon. WHY because there is a chicken in my bathtub. If it ends up in there one more time today it will be a dead little chicken too. The boys have been doctoring a chicken that all the other hens keep pecking on its little head. They love their little chickens so it came from the barnyard to our house and for some reason they keep trying to store it inside in my tub until it recovers. "This had better end soon the Mom finally yelled at the end of the day. Chickens live outside and not in my bathtub get it out now"! But Mom it will get cold and alone and what other excuse could they think up. "Out OUT OuT I said, now, and it will not come back in again, I mean it". It has a safe little recovery yard outside and it can stay there till it's a bit bigger now get it there enough said!
