it IS awful! And I only live less than 10 miles from the Dunlap farm...my boyfriend knows the Menold guy too. I just feel so darn helpless. I wish I could take them all in. I'll keep you updated. Last I heard he wanted to sell the remaining 10 to a Dekalb, IL slaughterhouse to "cut his losses" (the actual owner, not D. Menold) Mr. Menold will not let him do that, I hope!
