Hi, im sure some asked about the cone you used but with limited internet and no local supply shops im curious how its made. Looks like a large frosting cone you invert the bird in? I got my first 2 chicks 3 wks ago and im still not settled here. They live on my balcony for now. Slaughtering of animals is normal here so when time comes im sure I can find someone to show me how its done locally. Ive cut up chickens from whole store bought birds most 40 yrs now so that I dont need help with. With all the local butchers getting tools shouldnt be hard and the burner you use is used here for cooking wedding or other forms of community meals. Not to expensive. My biggest issue is where they slaughter so I hope by the time these layers become food for the table I can have a decent place put together. BYC is making my dreams a lot easier to invision seeing how so many others are raising chickens in non industrial settings.

The regular one gallon? And they are large enough for large fowl? (Wyandotte, plymouth rock?)I just use an empty vinegar bottle. The plastic is a little thicker than on milk bottles, and they are rounder. I cut out the bottom and a little bit of the top, then screw it to a tree. Works like a charm and is basically free.
