I never could figure out how relatives of ours could actually have a chicken farm. They were immigrants from eastern Poland so it's not so hard for me to understand now. We were from the big city and I was five tears old. it was thanksgiving and I'd never been so far from NYC. They had two long low buildings full of chickens all over the place. Feathers and eggs and clucking and feathers. In the middle of the country with snow everywhere and pine trees. not unlike Steve's farm in Chassel. It blew my mind. <BR/><BR/>Great blog Steve. Love the spelling. Can't wait for spinich to make its appearance.Katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00779297906121013355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029684303655226571.post-32824642358685328002007-11-11T19:32:00.000-08:002007-11-11T19:32:00.000-08:00We have used a sheet metal cone for killing chiken...We have used a sheet metal cone for killing chikens - the cone is truncated so there is an opening at each end. Put the chiken head first into the big end and stick the head out of the hole at the little end. That holds the chiken immobile and its easy to strike the head off with a knife. No mess because it can't flop around.<BR/><BR/>Steve (on the chken farm)szyszkoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01315021285552052882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029684303655226571.post-77210868915383904652007-11-11T03:02:00.000-08:002007-11-11T03:02:00.000-08:00hi Papa!I never heard anything like your chicken s...hi Papa!<BR/><BR/>I never heard anything like your chicken story. and I love the way you spell things like "bought" is spelled "bot" and you spelled chicken without the C on purpose.<BR/><BR/>this is a very interesting story and I like reading it :)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13247339159494545179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029684303655226571.post-37472630637059856642007-11-11T02:29:00.000-08:002007-11-11T02:29:00.000-08:00Hi Dadgreat post.
