Chicken Butchering Day

We bought 24 day-old chicks at the end of August, 12 layers and 12 meat birds. Today was round 1 of butchering. Grandpa Mack and Anita came out to help. He was a good coach and it was a great time spent together on a beautiful fall day.

Ben and Nora had fun playing in the cattle yard and watching the festivities. They even got their hands on chicken parts!
