    FDA has admitted chicken meat contains arsenic!

    Broilers are ugly birds but I've never had any as ugly as the ones in the pictures.... We have 22 outside waiting for the lucky few who are going to the fair to get home so they can all move to the freezer.

    The ones I was thinking of/talking about are like regular Ziploc bags that have an airlock on the front below the zipper and can be used over and over with washing.

    Raw milk can you freeze it?

    Goat milk? I was looking at buying a separator but if freezing will give me enough cream for butter I'll make room in the freezer for it. It would be much cheaper. My first goat kidded Sat and the kids aren't emptying her and she is soooo full so I've been milking her in the morning after...
