Like chickens with their heads cut off!

Okay, so we totally got to do something I never thought we would do. We butchered chickens...yes, that's right, we actually helped. Last Monday, we helped to slaughter 150 chickens. I learned how to catch them by grabbing their legs and holding them upside down. Then we hung them by their feet. Next comes the unbelievable part... I, Paul Bushhorn, actually cut the heads off of several chickens! Okay, nasty! Those birds flopped around slinging blood all over my clothes! Then we had to dip them in a pot of boiling water and pluck them. This is where the girls came in. Jaycee did the most plucking, but Hannah and Alyssa helped too. Dulcie wouldn't even come down close to the coop and Levi was so totally disgusted that he just went and played with the pigs. Smart kid! So, after the initial shock that I had just murdered one of God's creations, it wasn't actually that bad. Now we have a freezer full of chickens in which to feed the home, so bring on the Jerk Chicken!
