The First Kill!

So...Sunday 13th March was the day of our first home-kill: Ruby the highland cow, and the two lambs are now waiting at the Edendale butcher to be processed for the freezer.

We won't go into too many details but local Matthew Ferguson came around and shot Ruby (it was quick and peaceful and she suspected nothing), and slit the throats of the lambs.

Next step, buy a cow/lamb/pig sized freezer!
