We like them without head and feathers and not recognizable as once living animals. Nicely wrapped in plastic. And when I say 'we', I mean 'they', because I'm one of those vegetarians ;-)Carolinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09288856854422999687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1294026230680025155.post-12687227149369158492011-01-31T08:06:55.515+00:002011-01-31T08:06:55.515+00:00Looks like at home but no poor tame pheasants here...Looks like at home but no poor tame pheasants here.
