“The plant near me WAS open and doing business, until the virus got in there. Now that’s closed too. There are a LOT of chicken houses in my county, not sure what they’ll do now. Those are on a ‘schedule’.”
I have been thru a part of Tx that has a large amount of poultry production. Went by one set of houses several days ago and the truck with cages to haul them away was parked out front, it was still there about 4 days later, I thought that was odd as they usually load and go. I now wonder if plant closure had something to do with it.
Those chicken trucks passing my house have been a fact of life since we moved here. When my kiddos were little they’d see t hem pass and hear the chickens ‘talking’. We’d tell them the chickens were ‘going to a new home’.
Sadly they won’t be going to a new home for a little while. They’re usually ‘contract’ chickens for one of the big poultry names.
Fishing rod is ready to mitigate the coming high prices for protein. I’m not a hunter, may need to rethink that.
