My grandpa had a chicken ranch down in San Bernadino in the 30's. One day at Thanksgiving dinner he was merrily telling the tales of working there while warding off a dry throat with wine. He assured us all that the _only_ way to test if a chicken is still a layer or to be harvested for dinner was whether you could get 2 fingers or 3 into them, complete with vivid hand gestures towards the turkey on the table. Expressions around the table were priceless.

God I miss that guy.

So you checked your chickens yet?

Andy, Congrats on the house. Goats do chew everything. Your place looks really good. Hope there's roam for a get together. We could have chicken!

Aha, now I know why this post didn't show up in any of my regular chapter threads, damned phone posting. Anybody in California want some nice fresh Canadian cold weather, it'll turn you blue and turn you to ice in under 2 minutes. It's tariff free as its part of the free trade agreement but not part of NAFTA so Trump won't mind.
