That is funny, but I thought you were talking about feeding the chickens....sorry, you meant the pigs right? No, you won't get them to killing size in 6-8 weeks.... My goof :hide
Lol, nope it was the pigs that I want in the freezer, I refuse to pay these high prices for pork when it doesn taste as good as home grown...the chickens are about ready for freezer camp...as soon as I can get to them and get em done ;)

Industrial pork is pasty white and has all the taste of cardboard. Home grown is a medium red color and actually has flavor. Our DD texted us a picture of grilled pork chops that we took them and said all 3 girls went back for seconds. Reckon it was any good? :weee
This wait for the good pork is driving me crazy lol...wanna fill that freezer and work that soil for a garden.
Managed to get the rest of the stepping stones laid and the "off the porch dog area " done this weekend with the help of my BIL, thankfully he didn't charge me too much to help..next I am splitting the big back porch in half with a knee wall so the four dogs can have a lounge area and hang outside more than inside the house...
Took Milo and Jazz to the vets this morning for shots, I think I have spent enough there in the last year to add another wing to their practice...lol,
We are having cool days with lite rain then back up to the mid 80's, I will. Gladly take that weather.... :thumbsup

That's why you have to chicken fry it!

Our grand daughters last visit, the little one asked for sausage and I had to tell her that I was out. She was dumbfounded, it was beyond her that Mamaw was out of sausage. I took her to the Pig Palace to visit the future sausage! We pick them up Thursday and Mamaw has SAUSAGE!!

Yep - about $10.00 a dozen!
That would be too cheap. I can't even remotely imagine charging a relative to help them! I wouldn't charge a friend or neighbor.
I do not like your BIL, Sam-I-AM.
I would not like him here or there.
I would not like him anywhere.
