Farmer Boy





















Farmer Drew.


This is for all you city slickers who just can't see Drew as a true, country boy, farmer. Here is the proof. He is true, John Deer Green. He can drive a tractor with the best of them and look good doing it. hahaha


Drew is raising his second batch of meat chickens (50), he decided not to do 125 at once like last year. We were all pretty tired of chickens after butchering, plucking or skinning, gutting, and packaging 125 chickens. We also got 35 egg layers this year and turkeys. Only 3 of our 10 turkeys made it.( they are in this last picture with 10 black egg layers. The little brown and yellow chicks will be layers too. We will be starting the whole "chicken death row" thing in about 2 weeks. Chicken anyone?
Don't worry the little finch is safe. He was freed due to good behaviour.

Wow Drew! Working in Jerry Nelson's chicken house all of those years ago is paying off! :) Have fun!
