OK - another question to do with my poor chook who died yesterday. What do you all do with your chicken bodies?
We have had a rather bizarre family fight this afternoon - my eccentric mother in law wanted to give it to the local fox - she was going to take it for a long walk to the end of the field behind us. I already said I didnt want this to happen - Im not too emotional about the chicken but I dont agree with feeding the local foxes. They are vermin which poo all over my lawn.
Anyway, as I drove through the gates from work I saw her running off (well, if you can describe a 80 odd year old who can hardly walk anymore running - more of a hunched over fast paddle) - she grabbed the box it was in and ducked off round the corner to hide it from me. Apparently my OH had said she could do it, so she tried to do a covert op to grab it, knowing I objected - OH hadnt known, but as she had she shouldnt have asked him behind my back.
So - now I have a sulking MIL, hungry foxes and a chicken body waiting for disposal still - a day late!
