You have NO idea how LOUD they can be ALL NIGHT long!

Never name something you may eat. Love rabbit but I’d rather field dress a deer than a rabbit. How can something that small have that much stink?
I do, too. There's a Subcontinental eatery down in Fullerton that serves up a good goat curry with basmati rice and garlic naan.
We met a lady at the supermarket who keeps chickens.
We asked if she named them. She said, "No."
I said, I would. I'd name them, "Monday," "Tuesday," "Lunch," "Dinner."
She chuckled.
No doubt, wanted to pocket the $902 as well as keep the goat.
Or, a liberal democrat, but then I repeat myself.
With apologies to Mark Twain.
Just name them appropriately. ("Monday," "Tuesday," "Wednesday.")
It’s a youth auction, used to raise funds for their education, to spur on their animal husbandry aspirations, and of course, as a way to prop up the buyers in the community by showing how ‘they’re giving back.’
The prices are not reflective of the current meat market. There usually aren’t restaurants bidding on such animals (unless they plan on having some type of youth feast and need to splash to garner attention and praise from perspective clients and guests.)
Deep pit BBQ goat is great. My relatives used to make it. We had a huge party where we had deep-pitted beef, lamb, goat, and pork. All were raised and slaughtered there, where they ate premium food, got to graze, etc. After cooking, the meat was separated in pulled-pork style.
We didn't even think to tell the guests what the different meats were, we just let them pick. The chevon was everyone's favorite by a huge margin and ran out way before anything else. It had a nice, red color, plus better grain and flavor than the other meats.
Some people asked what it was because it was the runaway favorite at the BBQ. When we told them it was chevon, and further explained what "chevon" was to them, a lot looked horrified and acted like we had just fed them dog.
Excellent point.
This is an OLD story.
Always name the beef steer Chuck.
I have skinned and gutted a lot of cottontail rabbit in the Ozarks, none ever stank. Maybe your rabbits eat some weird. foul plant in your area?
I’ve never done deep pit BBQ. It sounds like something that would be very dangerous for me to learn. I’d need to spend half my retirement buying stretchy waistband pants.
Bingo. Should have made the winning bid, paid themselves and took the goat home.
A friend used to raise them and have a party each summer.
One unfortunate summer as he was slowly roasting the goat at zero dark thirty a gust of wind blew some embers from the BBQ pit into the empty pen setting the straw on fire and leaping next to the garage!
His screaming brought his wife out who wanted to call the fire department.
NO!NO!NO! He said, “THEY WILL DRINK ALL THE BEER!”
The garage was nicely toasted but the tubs of iced beer were saved by the garden hose.
Here’s my question:
What kind of mother decides to auction an animal which they never intended to slaughter themselves and with which the daughter became attached as a pet?
and THEN brazenly breaks the law with no regard for the consequences...
and THEN sues the auction with whom she’d entered into a contract?
My take on the answer:
A lib.
The lesson for the parent is they should have bid at auction to win the animal. Would have been cheaper than legal fees.
Eastern Nebraska. Went hunting with a buddy once & we didn’t see any pheasants but ran into a spot that was loaded with rabbits. My buddy starts blasting and asking me why I’m not shooting them & I told him they stink and didn’t want to bother with them. Took them home and I showed him how to dress one and left him with about a dozen left to dress. Next day I asked him about it and he said he dumped the rest.
