So tomorrow is the big day. I have 8 cornish rock x that are 10 weeks old. I have been reading and watching videos on how to kill them, pluck them, and butcher them. But i have some questions...
As my wife did not want to be around for this part she took my two kids and left for the weekend, So I'll be doing this by myself.
My question is, since I have 8 birds to do should I do one at a time, kill,pluck,butcher? Or can I kill them all then pluck them all then butcher them all?
Also we want to keep 4 of them whole and cut the other 4 into pieces but I haven't seen any thing that really shows how to cut them up, I'm sure I could figure it out but I like to do research first so I have a general Idea of what I'm supposed to be doing.
I have butchered deer but a chicken is not a deer.
Edit: Well i found a link on here on how to cut a chicken into pieces and it was way easier than I thought.
