That is what chickens are for! They will chow that down and be happy about it.

I have dogs that will get it before the chickens do... The chickens are already eating each other, I'm not about to introduce them to pork as well. No Rammy, the meat has been like this since I bought it. It looked so good, but you don't eat looks. They migrated to the bottom of the freezer because they are terrible/lousy. I'd like to do a garden this year... nothing major, just a small one to grow the few things that I'll eat.

Have to thank @Devonviolet & her DH for their generosity. Took a drive over there today and borrowed their disbudding box and burner. The nubs on the new little boy are already becoming prominent. I expect I'll get him done this weekend. The 2 little girls will need to be done but they're barely there yet. Probably get them later next week. Since I was out that way, I swung into Jersey Girl dairy farm and got me a couple gallons of raw milk. YUM! 
When I got home I took cookies out for the dogs. Mel immediately started sniffing me all over... He could smell Deo and Violet all over me 
Told him he better forget smelling me and eat his cookie before the goats got it. 
Solid overcast now with increasing dampness. Here's what we are forecast for from https://forecast.weather.gov/:

Humidity has a different definition....back where we come from and will take Florida's definition of it over Mississippi's.....there are 2 main differences....soil content and sea-breezes versus no wind at all.....the sand doesn't hold the moisture that the heavy clay does and until it gets like concrete ya can sweat just standing still....it puts a capital "O" in the word "Oppressive"....plus it rarely gets to triple digits here, but come July and August, Mississippi will be there or really close most everyday....especially the realfeel temps....
