I'll update...I sold all nine kids and got enough to buy hay for everyone for the year.

How do you harvest those saddle and hackle feathers? By plucking? After dunking in hot water? How do you make them ready for sale? Do you shampoo them? I have six great roosters with fine feathers, destined for the pot before too long, once it cools down a bit. Then however many are in the group of ten that we hatched that survived the weasel.

We continued our yard sale for a second day. We made another 285 dollars. A grand total of 885 in two days. Just mowed 4 yards for 200.00. Not a bad 2 days. :)


GOATS FOR SURE Going to finish off the goat house this week. :)

Neighbor offered me some beets. So, I got enough for 3-4 pints of pickled beets. Then, he came back over later and asked if I would have time to pickle his, too. So, he brought over jars, lids, vinegar, and sugar - for me to do the whole batch (I'll use my own jars and lids) and he's going to pay me $1/jar to can them for him. Doesn't take any extra time to add his beets to the cooking pot and the canner.

Saturday, we sold two roosters at $10 each. Then the buyers asked if we had eggs and veges for sale.
So we made a total of $40!
