Lesson 1

Well, in our adventure-filled weekend, I was able to watch someone take the meat off of a cooked chicken. She used to butcher chickens, but it was a while ago (it's my mom :). So I am feeling a little better prepared for the butchering of our 3 inside roosters. That, and they are really stinking!!! I clean their kennel every day. It's most annoying. SO, the plan is next week, but I need to talk to another of the players of this act first. My mom suggested having someone there for moral support. I chose Eric, but he won't take off of work to be there for me to butcher some chickens. The main thing I am having some troubles with is the actual killing. The throat slitting is giving me a few moments pause. They are all laughing, since I've named all of the chickens. You know who you are. That, and I'm pretty sure there's a pool going about if I am actually going to go through with it or not.
