Our 24 Cornish X's go to the processor Sunday night - They'll be butchered the next day. We're borrowing a utility trailer and putting a tarp over the top. At least that was the plan and I'm suddenly wondering if it's a good one. I'm wondering if the poor chickens will get tossed around and may suffer a bit on the ride. Any tips?
Also, any worries with fresh chicken carcasses and a 30-40 min drive back home in terms of bacteria or anything? Can I just put them in bags in the back of the SUV or should I be rounding up ice packs and coolers?
