Almost seven weeks ago........the Roberts purchased 50 cute little yellow chicks called broilers. The idea was to test out whether or not raising these chickens would be a more economical way of feeding the fourteen individuals that make up our two families.
A few days ago we all got to experience what families in America must have found common practice 75 years ago...........slaughtering your own meat. What a task, our worker Terren and a couple other ladies from the surrounding villages spent all day plucking feathers, cutting the chicken into pieces and bagging it all. Needless to say we are a lot more grateful for pioneers such as KFC who make enjoying our little feathered friends much less tiresome.........
