Mini Horses
Sustainability Master
Yes!! ALL home grown.
I was considering trip bucks to butcher last yr -- one day I found myself saying I could sell them, at a feed store, and some guy bought them! He picked them up about an hr later....I was sort of relieved in an odd way and pocketed the $$$.
This year I was blessed with 7 bucklings. One I plan to keep...cute little 5th gen mini nub. But, one set of bucklings are full Nub and are just BIG. 3 months & look 6. Since I have found a private owned slaughter house fairly close, I am thinking this will be the year I butcher. Other 4 will be sold. The 4 doelings are here and will remain for a "while".....
Now I need to collect goat meat recipes. Used to eat rabbit, squirrel & venison but, not in a while. I have a real hard time with processing the rabbits....cuteness thing. Can do chickens. 2 hens sitting so will prob be having a processing session this summer. Been a long time.
