We took the current flock of Cornish Cross in to the "processor" a week earlier than normal. They grew fast. It might be due to having more roos this time and they grow faster than the pullets. We had six roos and three pulls... we lost one pull last week. Not sure why, but she was dead in the morning last weekend when we went to let them out into the run. I may have mentioned it when I talked about the yotes... Anyways, eight to the processor and to be picked up tomorrow by noon. Quick turn around. Then in the spare fridge for 48 hour cure, then a quick chop chop and ready for the freezer.
It's been a few weeks since planting but the potatoes are starting to sprout out of the dirt! Our temps have been wonky... briskly cool more days than usual... I have the onions planted too. I way over planted the onions in hopes that we get more throughout the summer. Fertilized the fall garlics last week. We are off to the races on the "under ground" plants.
