    Some people like Rocky Mtn Oysters too. I've had them a couple of times which makes me wonder if anyone fries up rooster "oysters".

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I pulled the last three daikon radishes out of the garden. The largest root was about 6 inches long and 1.5 inches in diameter, and tasted no different to me than a regular red radish. Chickens got the tops.

    That works, but they're good when fried. Fried gizzards are even better.

    And it's one of the most nutrient dense meats around. I'm thinking about grinding a pound of liver and using it to make a big pot of chili as an experiment. With lots of onions in it. LOL

    I'm now considering processing the two 38 week old cockerels that are in the bachelor pad and putting 4 of the November hatched cockerels in the bach pad to grow out more. I'll put the other two Nov. cockerels in with the pullets and hens so they can start getting their flock dynamics...

    Another Science experiment, need some data.

    Well, the only liver IGA had was something strange- ground beef liver and beef heart mixed together. I have no idea what you'd make with that. So I had a couple pounds of beef liver delivered from Walmart. Might have liver and onions this weekend.

    Thanks! I really enjoyed coming up with a working design that was made from "junk" I had laying around. The 4 screws I used were out of a one pound box I got from Ace Hardware that was marked down to $1. They are 1/2" sheet metal self drilling screws. They worked great for attaching plastic to...

    It's been a few years since I had liver and onions. If the IGA has liver, that's what I'm having with some veggies on the side.

    Adding the popsicle partitions to the feeder made all the difference in the world. No more crumbles are being tossed out now.

    They will. I plan to move them outside in a week or two.

    The homemade feeder is working perfectly in the brooder. No crumbles at all are being thrown out of the base into the pine shavings. The brooder is a 2x3 rabbit cage, minus the floor section, placed inside a Harbor Freight utility trailer in the shop. Much better than having them kick up dust...

    I think there's a new cheese store in your hometown.

    The chicks were still slinging crumbles out of the feeder so I'm trying something new. I added popsicle sticks.
