Savingdogs-Saving the chickens

[savingdogs]

Killed our first home-grown roo today....he was getting troublesome so his days came to an end just now.
But this marks our first home-hatched bird to become our dinner! Yay us!

I'm off to pluck....feeling very SS........

Butchering gives me the big SS head..... CONGRATS!

It will be delicious!

 

[savingdogs]

Do you know, can we pluck and eat it tonight?

 

[BarredBuff]

Do you know, can we pluck and eat it tonight?

Yes you can if you hurry. Those pin feathers are horrible they pop like black heads................

 

[savingdogs]

I was thinking we could, but .......we are from Los Angeles!

I'm on it! ........off to kitchen to begin plucking.....

 

[framing fowl]

Good job you guys! It'll be delicious!

 

[BarredBuff]

That dont mean nothing. Im from KY and I can read and write contrary to popular belief...........

Hubby is cutting the guts out while I'm in the next room....we got him all plucked.

See if he tries to attack my EE girls again.....he was a much meaner roo than my Charlie Harper, makes me appreciate Charlie. If he had been around another week my hens would be neked.

As it is, he is the neked one hanging in the kitchen.

ps we always chill our birds for a couple days

 

[savingdogs]

Why do you chill them? He is already in the oven so for this one its too late.

We were hungry!
