Preparing for Uncertainty and Self Reliance

[C-Mag]

The thing about cockerels, mutton or other older beasts is the ability to cook them for longer without the meat falling apart.
This gives more time for the flavours to develop.
Next time someone serves you a coq au vin and it is a tender breast fillet send it back. It should be an old cockerel and still on the bone.
Capon is usually sold young when it is still a tender meat.

So, if I wanted to raise me some roasting Capons, how old is optimum.

At least 81 days and given natural food.

Oh, I was thinking like a year, to full maturity and some time to really pack on some meat.

Government still gets their pound of flesh. It’s the corporate masters that can’t stand non-consumers.

[Fife]

Yeah you gotta watch out for the SWAT teams from Walmart and Monsanto.

[Speaker to Animals]

Government definitely does not want more people wandering off the plantation. If most people grew most of their food again, and educated their own children, government would be completely fucked.

No, they send SWAT lobbyists to make water catchment illegal.

[Fife]

So, yeah, its your government that's a piece of shit.

Congratulations.
