WELL ? Here we go More sage hens

D4570;

I learned a long time ago, you do not shoot the big grouse.  Shoot the little sage hens, not mamma & daddy.  If you shoot a big one, skin the breast & wash all the fluids off till there's only meat.  Then take a 20X magnifier & examine the breast meat closely.  Clear as day you will see:

VULCANIZED BY GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER CO. AKRON OHIO.

I repeat, just pop the little ones.

Eastern grouse are delish! Better then chicken any day! You can keep those sage hoppers, even raw they have the taste and texture of bad jerky!

Feathers.....survivalist protein. But then perhaps the
world would benefit from more feathers in the diet:

Feather-pecking response of laying hens to feather and
cellulose-based rations fed during rearing.

Recent studies in laying hens have shown that feather
peckers eat more feathers than nonpeckers. We
hypothesized that food pellets containing feathers would
decrease the birds' appetite for feathers and thereby
also decrease feather pecking. To separate the effect of
feathers from that of insoluble fiber per se, additional
control groups were fed pellets containing similar
amounts of cellulose. Sixty (experiment 1) and 180
(experiment 2) 1-d-old Lohmann-Selected Leghorn birds
were divided into 12 groups of 5 (experiment 1) and 15
(experiment 2) birds, respectively, and kept on slatted
floors. During the rearing period, 4 groups each had ad
libitum access to either a commercial pelleted diet, a
pelleted diet containing 5%(experiment 1) or 10%
(experiment 2) of chopped feathers, respectively, or a
pelleted diet containing 5%(experiment 1) or 10%
(experiment 2) of cellulose, respectively. In the
consecutive laying period, all groups received a
commercial pelleted diet. In experiment 1, feather
pecking was recorded weekly from wk 5 to wk 16. In the
laying period, observations were made in wk 18, 20, 22,
23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, and 30. In experiment 2, feather
pecking was recorded weekly from wk 5 to 11, in wk 16 to
wk 18, and in wk 20 and 21. At the end of the rearing
period, plumage condition per individual hen was scored.
Scores from 1 (denuded) to 4 (intact) were given for each
of 6 body parts. The addition of 10% of feathers to the
diet reduced the number of severe feather-pecking bouts
(P < 0.0129) and improved plumage condition of the back
area (P < 0.001) significantly compared with control
diets. The relationship between feather pecking/eating
and the gastrointestinal consequences thereof, which
alter feather pecking-behavior, are unclear.
   Understanding this relationship might be crucial
for understanding the causation of feather pecking in
laying hens.

And thus was born the term.... ready???......

YOU CHICKEN!!
