Oh, my, livers to the dogs? Chicken liver pate is one of the finer things in life, one that I dearly missed until I started growing my own chickens (I am unwilling to eat livers of factory-grown animals). You must love your dogs!

That said, congrats on a successful and presumably profitable day!

ixnay,

You bet. Livers and hearts to the dogs as well as some necks. After we use the carcass to make stock we pass that to the hens then let the dog eat them (carcasses that is).
 
not a hybrid? isn't this post about processing freedom rangers lol

and i still don't think i'd risk feeding the cooked bones, but that's just my opinion.

ETA either way, it was just a question..

after I cook the carcasses for broth, the bones are all soft and crumbly, not much of a threat. I think it is safer than all the other things dogs ingest, for example...barbie boots, toy tiger tails, half of a frisbee

Sorry, guess I didn't word correctly. Filled with hormones and other drugs as a factory raised cornish x. Did not mean to say hybrid as the rangers are a hybrid but I also feed the dog my culled roo's carcases along with raw rabbits bones and all.

Besides. Dogs and other animals in wild they would eat the bones of the animals they catch. Same with coyotes and foxes catching chickens. No harm for the dogs at all.
