While at the Hinton drag races I heard chicks for layers and chicks for meat production were selling at the Eric Chicken Auction for $30 and $50 per head. Is this about right?

A dozen?
$5 is HIGH
$3-$4 is about right

If you drop the zero that sounds feasible otherwise no.

The rooster is running alone because he turtled 3 times and got into it with a running mate. Asparagus has to be picked every day other wise it gets too tall quick fast and in a hurry. lol. Sweet tater slips are getting there. Doggie is loving the company she keeps.

It was that time of year again and again in another 3 weeks. People food, dog food and even chicken food. The dog and chicken food was cooked in the scolder. The buddy that came took to it like a duck and enjoyed the experience. The chicken legs will go to 2 folks who want for bone broth.

Hatched here, grown here, local feed and insects. No fluid added, no antibiotics, no hormones. Just like the chicken your grandparents put on the table .

One piece at a time, but it's coming together, the scabbard came in today. Now to figure out where the hone rod is I bought sometime back .

At $9 a pound organic, roughly $720 more yummy chicken went into the freezer today. Hatched and raised here and butchered at 13 weeks. Kept 6 hens back for future needs. The lovely wife came thru again with flying colors. While having a plucker makes plucking easy the fat content of the birds sure does make a greasy mess and clean up work.

The drought is so deep that the electric fence ground rods are no longer grounding. This was pointed out to me by our youngest calf. He's quite enjoying himself though, grazing the yard and the new critters he can now come in contact with.
