Cool! I remember driving through the area, the number of chicken barns is staggering.

I won’t forget about driving through southern indiana into kentucky, though, and the snow on the road in August, but it was really chicken feathers from birds going to the processor there.

there are 2 processing plants in this county, Tyson and Perdue, I pass the Tyson plant at least twice a day because it is only about 3 miles from home.........believe me with all the chicken trucks around here, I understand exactly what you mean about the feathers.

It’s even worse when one of them happens to overturn, but fotunately it doesn’t happen to often.

We eat a lot of chicken in our house, always have, but it irks me to no end that with all of them growing around here and the number of plants in the region, chicken is still higher priced here than in other areas.
