We fear the ins and med more than the bull.
I can eat the bull, those other two can eat me.

The best way to avoid finding a partially developed chick is to collect eggs at least every third day

The only time a chick was found in our eggs was when the kids were little and they collected eggs. Had a hen setting a clutch and they happened to go in when she was off the nest for a minute and they collected her eggs as well.
My wife had given those to a lady we knew, luckily they were country folks and there was no trauma caused.


I can tell the difference in eggs we collect and store bought ones, our chickens free range.
Not a huge difference but it is there.

Funny thing, someone bought property next door to our farm,between us and the lake, large parcel. Built a huge 12 unit air b and b…rented to hunters that put up cameras for a week to attempt to realize their dreams of shooting a nice buck that our farm feeds.

I shot the biggest buck ever with the nicest rack in my life 8 minutes in on opening morning…..then the city hunters came after they saw pictures of it moving around the previous evening, lol.

…. What are ya’ll doing in here ?

… who cares … just a dead deer head .. what’s with the numbers nonsense?

I thought that I read it was open to non-residents. I think Utah and Texas are the only states you can trap them and harvest under normal trappers license. Probably some other midwest and eastern states that just don’t have anything on books prohibiting it.

I have to say that with all the planning and prizes, especially with the tons of stuff set up for the kids, it make me proud to be part of WTA D5!

Good job, guys!

I was always one who wanted the crusts. Fresh out of the oven those warm crusts with our own butter we churned and during season, good wild blueberry jam!

We live near springfield mo but technology wise might as well be the north pole. Just because of the holler we set in no cell service can't get satellite TV we could get this new star link but its costly [/quote]
I remember years ago, when I took my girlfriend home to Virginia , her grandmother had a TV and the antenna was on top of the montain.
I thought wow, that a lot of antenna wire to go clear up there.
It seemed to be somewhat mowed to keep the wire clear.
Had to be over 600 feet or better to the top.
She lived in a hollow , and mountains on both sides.
I thought it was amazing what they would do to get a few channels on their tv.

That’s some wild stuff! Wonder if today’s DNA data bank would link him to family.
