Then I changed my mind

Jesus is my Lord and Christ

Meyer Hatchery here in Ohio. Family owned, quality fowl.

When we lived in ohio myers was about 20 minutes west of us. When I was in high school you could go there and get the leftovers or clean outs. You could just stop in and ask for whatever they had and the might be a quarter a piece. Best thing I found for roosters is to take them to auction in Mt hope. We would average $15 a piece for them and get as high as $20.

We get $15-20 for roos here. They sell great. One guy says he sells from farm $30 each & lots of buyers

They are good folks. I have fond memories of driving home with boxes of day old peeps loudly chirping in the back seat.

I'm already starting to figure out how many chicks I need to order for spring.

When I think 30 chicks, feed, and butchering days -- I'm suddenly between ....
"Is there really too many chems in store bought?"
And "should I be vegetarian?"

The butchering is gross in so many ways, BTDT. Hard to get started. Once you do, you plow on thru, mumbling nasty things. I find it easier if another there to talk to, rather than a lone event. Misery loves company, as they say.

Having customers who pay well sure makes it a more positive event. Kudos to @baymule for having them.

Less bloody is gardening. Hard work, thankful after canning.
