Hey everyone! This is Sarah.
Yesterday afternoon, we got a call from some friends of ours saying that they, and one other family, were going to go ahead and process their 4-H broilers, and we were invited to do ours as well. So this morning, Dad, Daniel, Abby, Benjamin, and I went over to the T.'s house to process our broilers. Our birds weren't the biggest ones there, by far, but it was high time they were "done away with". ( They'd sort of been on a budget diet, but hey! We're new to all this and are learning all about it:) Dad, Nigel T., and Benjamin, sort of ran the killing, Mrs. T. and I did the head and feet removing(I felt like a real surgeon with rubber gloves ;) and Daniel, Daniel T., and Stephen T., were eviscerating. We got our 28 all ready and bagged in a pretty short time. Dad had asked if we could save all the innards , etc. to give to our pigs when we got home. Boy did they enjoy 'em! Here are a couple pictures of them feasting on their treats :) 

Well, There they are, and I'd better be going!

That's soo amazing! Like, those pigs look just like mine! It's like freaky! [heh, heh, heh,;)
ReplyDeleteWe had some pigs that looked very similar... I wonder if they could be related?

ReplyDeleteHey you two! Wow that sounds interesting. I don't think I'd like doing that very much. =)
ReplyDeleteRachel I like what I read of your children's novel on the sidebar!
I agree with like, Daniel!
ReplyDeleteThey look like, kinda like, scary !;)
Ok, enough with the "like" word! My two younger sisters helped process chickens and turykeys at Broken Arrow farm. They found it very interesting. Definitely a new experience, but I think they liked it.
