these photos help one better understand why our neighbors have pig traps set all around the perimeter of our place .
and when they are that size they are just like what you buy at the grocery store taste wise .
we will likely get after them this next week ourselves ,looks like it might be fun and productive

my chickens are so spoiled they won't touch cracked corn and hardly eat layer pellets either , but then again who has a wife that ketches a coffee can full of grasshoppers once a week for them ,right ?

That is a lot of grass hoppers. Don't see very many in my neck of the woods. They do get leftovers, bad vegetables from the garden and grass clippings.

If you ever decide to haul your boat to the Keys and fish for Yellowtails, be prepared to use massive amounts of ground chum.
That is if your interested in catching many.
But, be sure to pick up a bag of cracked corn at a feed store also, because it can lower the cost of your chum by using that along with it.
