It’s sad when you have to let animals you raised go to slaughter. When I raised feeder pigs, I let my granddaughters name them. When I explained that there was their future pork chops, roast, bacon and sausage, the middle granddaughter asked if we could eat them now!

Out of the mouths of babes...

This afternoon I went out to my bantam coop and there was a chick in the middle of the run cheeping it was probably less then a day old but there were no hens with the baby and the chick was bleeding on its back so I think it was pecked by the other chickens so we put it in a water tank with a heat lamp because there was no mom

Sadly it passed away this evening it was my second chick that has ever hatched

I don't know who the dad was it could have either been my Partridge Wyandotte who won Champion Poultry at county fair or it could have been my Rhode Island Red who won Champion Poultry at state fair
