- to fatten
Example
- Mer hot die erschde drei Faasnachtkuche uffgegrimmelt un hot sie zu die Hinkel, die Gens, die Ende, un die Ginnis gfiedert. Ferwas hot mer des geduh? Well, so as die Hinkel en groosser Oierschtock griege. Sell iss "Inschurens" ass sie blendi Oier lege, eb sie brieich warre. Die Haahne warre viel gsunder un viel schwaerer. Un des iss aa “Inschurens” ass der Parre gut gemaescht watt, wann er kummt fer Sunndaag-Middaagesse. One crumbled up the first three Fastnachts and fed them to the chickens, the geese, the ducks and the guinea hens. Why did one do this? Well, so that the chickens would get a bigger ovary. That is insurance that they lay plenty of eggs before they get broody. The roosters get much healthier and much heavier. And this is also "insurance" so that the preacher will get fattened when he comes for Sunday dinner.
