    Colorado Custom Meat Processors

    Update: Elk River Custom Meats in Steamboat does great! I shot a little forky mule deer and had him worked into burger and bacon burger. Got the little velvet antlers worked on at the taxidermy shop next door. 10/10 recommend if you're in the area.

    Colorado Custom Meat Processors

    Was also considering hauling a freezer. I am taking my mule and donk so I might as well throw a small generator and chest freezer in the trailer. I have a processor here that will do most of what I want. I just want to try and get brats and some good sausage out of it.

    Okay, I have just looked on FB and they didn't have the best reviews. Was kind of on the fence. Do you haul yours all the way back to VA as well? Or do you get it shipped typically?

    They have some good prices. Will they make sausage or brats? I guess I could just get a lot grinded and then make my own? I may end up at Brothers in Craig.

    Donkey Packing

    Sounds good. I think my equines would probably be fine with hobbles and an electric fence while I am gone. I currently only keep them in a polytape fenced off field. I am going to centralish colorado for 14 days. only packing in up to 5 miles to base camp. So my little donk is probably fine...

    @burrohiker do you prefer a highline? or do you run electric fence? Also, do you shoe your donks? I have been talking with Ty Evans about the mule and he suggested shoeing the donk as well.

    Donkey Packing

    I traded in a Donk for a 15.4 hh mule. Got my Mt. Ridge Gear ordered and shipped. Waiting on the Sopris pack I ordered for my smaller donk to ship. @burrohiker I am considering using some soft sided coolers as panniers for the donk. Thoughts?

    Donkey Packing

    I think of them as big dogs they are pretty smart and willing to learn. I have had both since they were weaned so they are fairly chill/listen well. Just don't wait to long to get them gelded, they can develop some bad habits around that time.

    Donkey Packing

    Okay, I have been interested in the Mountain Ridge Gear ones and the Sopris SCARP system. But those seem like they are a little flimsy. One donk is half mammoth half big standard. I live in the Appalachian Mts. lots of bigger donkey stock around. Ones probably closer to 12 than 13. I've been...
