Well the ducks were slaughtered on Saturday. I will not be doing these again any time soon. Plucking of the muscovy was extremely hard. The hens weighed in at about 2-3lbs each and the males weighed in at about 7-8 lbs each. So an extra 8 weeks and alot of extra work. Need to make croutons tomorrow/today for Red Hen and get ready for the big Thanksgiving market that is this Saturday. Winter housing for the laying hens is being worked on. The snow has stayed away so far so I am trying really hard to get a number of things finished up. Need to seal up the greenhouses better for the winter and get a new door made. The really warm temps today make that a tough thing to do. Too hot in the greenhouses and everything will start to bolt and go to seed. Well going to go and try getting some sleep, really busy and charged week on tap, I will write more after this coming Saturday.
