Avram and Vita were at the house this weekend. (Vita is from Tonga) I told them I needed 5 chickens killed. These were the first chickens we bought. Their egg production has slowed down so it was time for them to go. 😢 It was a little hard to let them go because these chickens actually really liked me. We would work in the yard together and they would follow me around eating any worms I would dig up. It was obvious this wasn't the first time Vita has killed chickens. He walked over to the stack of fire wood, found a good size log, walked back over, grab the chicken by the neck and knock them out (breaking their necks) 😔😞😟😢
Once they were done they asked if we wanted to cook the chickens. I said no, "just throw them away." It was obvious that for Vita this was a big waste. I told them they were welcome to take the chickens if they wanted them.
Vita is living with a brother right now so he took them home and apparently that was their Sunday dinner.
It makes me sad just hearing about your first chickens dying. It's the circle of life I guess.
ReplyDeleteThat is kind of sad. I bet they are tough meat.
ReplyDeleteCrazy and sad. At least they didn't go to waste I guess.
