Clarence,

Is it a local Health Department ordinance that is preventing you from
selling your meat? As long as it is USDA or in some states, State
Inspected, the retail sale of meat then comes under Health Department rules.

I believe that if you check with the ATTRA folks in Arkansas they
have some materials that give cost/benefit charts.

Will be beginning our next enterprise next week with the arrival
of trout eggs from the west will I will be hatching and growing
for fresh farm raised mountain trout.

The processing of meat seems a more complex route than I had
anticipated with the need to have my lamb, goat, and beef
commercially processed and sold straight from the processor since
it's supposedly illegal to sell a cut up carcass as cuts of meat
from a freezer. However, I understand we can process our own
chicken own the farm, but that presents the concern over how to
obtain or build a reasonably priced chicken plucker.

And, lastly, anybody need to buy some registered corriedale or
border Leicester rams?
