Preparing things like "getting invitations ready"
I have another picture that I would like to add next for "Terrible things" but I think it is best not to, cause it isn't the thing that everyone would like to see. Last night the boys shot off some fireworks and we forgot that Benji was here. Benji is one of our boarders and he hates fireworks! Last night at 9:00 right when we are all getting ready to head to bed, I went out to put the dogs up for the night. Looking into Benji's cage ( a rottweiler ) I found that he wasn't there. Looking around I noticed a whole in the chainlink at the end of the run. ( He usually chews out when he hears fire works) I called him and I heard a bark come from the chicken pen. Instantly my heart sunk, knowing how he loves killing chickens. I ran out to the chicken pen to find him standing on the inside of the gate wanting out. I opened the gate and left him out. Glancing over the chicken yard I saw the slaughter. I was so sad, knowing that we had just got these young chickens and we just butchered off the old ones, and Dad and Mom were so happy with the new flock and everything. I ran in and told everyone and we all ran out to find that out of 32 chickens only 12 were left. They were scattered everywhere! Well the only thing we could do was save the meat since they were still fresh, so the knives were pulled out and we all got busy. I think we have all had our share of chicken butchering for this year!! |
