Rabbits and chickens are fairly easy.
The pigs are a pain.
The cows and deer I leave to the professionals if possible. I normally sent the pig as well but at the end of 2020 we had three and he had no room on his calendar to do them so we did them.
He has us down for four slots. Last year we only had the one pig. But we had three deer.
It is going to depend on how many deer we manage to harvest this year if we do the pig or have it done. I plan on only taking two but last year I only took one personally and the other two came from the deer farm. He had two customer who only wanted the head. For us... free meat is free meat.
People are weird. If I am playing $6000 to shoot a deer I am taking every scrap.
Yes, I wouldn’t let meat go to waste, either!
