Raw venison??

dealt with all that moose...
i only weighed the trim, not the bones/ribs, but i bagged up 106lbs of moose meat yesterday evening.



maggie got half a rack of ribs to keep her busy. it was so goddam big, i just put some blankets/towels/etc out on the floor and let her at it.





couldn't fit all the legs in the freezer, they're HUGE. they're in the fridge for now, and the dog will get them this week to munch on. if they go 'off' before she gets to them, i'll just toss em.

ugh..........I'm so insanely jealous.

That is AWESOME! We got some elk last night so I threw the bones out for the dogs. Our yard looks like a 10 legged elk was taken down last night. LOL
I would love to get my hands on some moose again!

I think, she cut it up pretty good for us so we could fit it in the freezers.

dam i wish i had a yard! that would make things sooo much easier. having a condo with carpet SUCKS. i'm thinking about getting some plywood or a large end scrap of linoleum to lay down in one area just to make clean-up easier.

When we feed them in the garage due to hornets we use either a tarp or lids to bins depending on how big the meal. Tarps are great because you can just hose them off and fold them up and they don't take up much space.
When you said you were hauling all that up to your condo, I thought "Where in the world does she feed something that big" Answered my question!! LOL

I haven't fed anything that big and don't think I will, but I have carpet and Khan eats in the dining room. He feels the need to eat whatever on his bed. So I started throwing a towel over his bed for every feeding so I don't have to wash his bed non stop

hi, my name is kayte, and i'm a meat hoarder.

...maybe all of us should start a support group.

I need a 2nd bathtub for defrosting big cases. Went to take a shower this morning and remembered there was a 60 pound case of pork flaps in there... bird bath it is then.

[kaytenmags]

yeah, i usually toss down some old blankets/towels, but i've also found that vinyl shower curtains work fairly well.
unfortunately, my dog is quite an... 'animated' eater.
she likes to grab, tear, move, brace... it's ridiculous. she must have flipped over that giant rack of moose ribs a dozen times while she was eating it. by doing all that, she tends to pull the blankets/towels/etc around so that i have to keep fixing them. i need something a bit more rigid. if i can find a cheap chunk of linoleum or vinyl decking, i'm going to lay that out. not very attractive, but definately functional!

If you go to the bath/shower section of Home Depot they have these giant sheets of waterproof rigid plastic that are used for putting on the wall / ceiling in bathrooms. They are pretty cheap. I have one under my rabbits' houses as they tend to get creative with aiming into the litterbox.

i picked up a sheet of vinyl decking this weekend, and it's awesome!
it's big, stable, easy to clean, and if i have visitors over i can just roll it up and put it away
