Damus? If so I have been canceling my post & then trying again to relaunch. My words stay so I am not rewriting, and sometimes my pic works in try 2… occasionally it’s try 3
Morning Nostriches!
Loan mine is completely dead today, maybe I’ll get some work later on.
Gonna get some reading in instead.
Extra pics are the snow buildup on my deck from yesterday’s snow & my frozen pond

Nope, all cancelled. I am in a snow event, we’re getting railed. It’s stunningly beautiful
Morning Nostriches!
Loan mine has been dead lately. So awful to sit through it & not do anything.
Going to chiropractor today for ongoing back issues. Hopefully he’ll have some new stretches for me & I can get back to farm chores.

They real valuable? You reading them every day?
I’m in year 3 of sheep right now. Just got my 1st ram & we’re making babies
It’s not a handout, it’s a reimbursement for an extremely small portion of the money they stole from you
That sucks, when’s your next opportunity?
I’ll get there. This is more achy back as opposed to flat on my back in pain
So rabies you’re in the clear on. There have been no cases of transmission through ingesting tainted meat although it’s not suggested that you eat it. Point is you’re clear.
Botulism can be countered by pressure canning the meat. Your meat is likely safe & you have nothing to worry about, but if you’re still worried pressure can it & you’ll be fine.
Prion proteins are not killable in a pressure canning process. So some of your meat is very likely safe even if your deer had it, but the back straps are in the danger zone. For your hunter friend to be exposing you here he would have had to shoot a deer with the disease & mishandle the meat. If you’re buddy is smart & the deer was shot in your county - with no warnings. You’re likely in the clear. That said as of right now there are no reported transmissions of CWD from deer to humans
Where is the meat from? If you’ve got a leg roast it’s not likely an issue. CWD concentrates in the spinal cord & sometimes organ meats.
How was it processed? If a lot of counties in your area have CWD testing requirements it’s likely that your local processors have the certifications necessary. While certifications do not guarantee that the meat is safe is highly increases the likelihood of safety.
Check with the person who gave you the meat if you have concerns. They have the most information for what you’re looking at
Nice, that looks like it was an awesome time
