Thank you for posting this! I have been struggling with different methods and poor video angles.

TMTex, that's odd...they usually do pretty good regardless of where they're planted. What kind of soil do you have? This year I did my zukes in a faux wine barrel planter from Costco. With lots of rabbit poop and fresh bagged soil lol. Anyway, if it's the soil at your place they don't like...

Yes I think so. Our buns were close to 16 weeks old Give it a try and report back :)

(sorry I don't have definate amounts, I usually just wing it) The night before, cut the meat up into the appropriate sizes and marinate overnight in enough buttermilk to cover. I use a zip bag and place it in a bowl in case of leaks. I add seasonings, salt, pepper, poultry seasoning, onion...

Thanks all! I'm not sure what to fix for the first dish. There are so many things that sound delish!!

This morning DH and I processed our first 6 buns. It went really well, with a few mistakes but not terrible ones. We held them by the hind legs and then whacked them on the back of the head. Only 2 bled out like the video by Bowbuild, but I think that will get better as we get more experience. I...

Have you canned hamburger? Makes for seriously fast dinners. :) (Although canned meat tends to smell like cat food.)

Fabulous job!! There was an entrelac class at Fiber Fusion last year, and the guy teaching it was wearing THE most awesome, tacky, brilliant sweater EVER. It had every variety of tacky 'fun' yarn, sparkles, eyelash, you name it, and on the cuffs...cha cha ruffles! (I like your scarf MUCH...

I have a small stove top presto cooker and a ginormous All American canner. I love them both and don't know how I've survived this long without them! Good luck with your replacement. I like the all american best because there are no gaskets to fail on them, and it also has a pressure regulator...

Our first time around we are nervous about botching the job. DH said he'd do the deed as long as they don't scream. I fear for our aim with a club, especially if we are nervous, so .22 it will be. DH is setting up a backstop in the garage so no chance of richocet if the .22 goes thru. Thanks for...

Hi all! Dh and I have a pistol bb gun we were planning on using for dispatch. It is a Smith and Wesson .177 caliber, takes steel bb's or pellets, is powered by a co2 cartridge, and has a velocity of 360 fps. Will this do the trick for AmChins? A friend suggested we use our little .22 pistol that...

We are not hardcore preppers, but we do have a well stocked pantry with shelf stable items as well as home canned stuff. I have long believed that happy animals taste better, and currently we get our beef from a friend and pork from 4H. I dislike grocery store chicken, and have no interest in...

Haha! My fav salad dressing too!

My bff also has extreme low blood pressure and mini strokes. They still aren't sure what's going on with her because nothing shows up on their instruments. Anyway, she nearly killed herself because she had limited salt in her diet, cuz ya know, salt is bad for you. She was only using very small...

WooHoo! Popples!

This thread is reminding me of the fact that they are animals, and we as humans tend to give them human emotions. :)

This is all so very fascinating! I'm going to have to warn dh about all this. It might freak him out...

We are planning to do the deed in the garage. Going to cover the entire area with plastic drop cloths. The neighbors on the one side are old school and won't care, but the apartment complex behind us poses a problem. We are pushing the envelope animal wise, and I would hate for the city to come...

Thanks for linking that, what a super idea!
