    OK, new birds in the freezer...now how do I eat them?!?

    if you can't figuire out how to eat them then stop breeding them , this can't be an honest question ?

    plucker

    i just looked at the "plucker " for $525.00 are you kidding me ? a half dozen hard rubber bungie cords attached to the inside of a washer basket will clean any bird you can process and cost less than $50.00

    Shuffling pens — can 6 week old chicks be separated from the Mama Hen?

    Hmmm, let's see , if you bought chicks from a breeder they would have been 1 day old when they left the hen >>>>sorta makes you wish you never asked the question doesn't it ????

    REMEMBER, Chickens are bred to produce food "eggs' and be food anything other than that is icing on the cake !

    Night time temps/thunderstorms/flu ??

    folks lets please get a grip on reality , chicks and chickens are a lot hardier than you might think , they are not babies and far from being incapable of handling the weather without you coddling them , my birds are currently standing in the pasture in a driving rain and show no ill effects ...

    Night time temps/thunderstorms/flu ??

    Please these are not babies , throw them outside and close the door , how will they handle cold weather and rain if they are not exposed to it ? Stop coddling them and allow them to grow , chickens are not yuppies and they do not need mommie and daddy to protect them !

    Poultry Hollow Hatchery Experience and Poultry Hollow Hatchery Chick "Growth Chart" (PIC HEAVY)

    I just have to jump in here because in a perfect world each chick would have room to roam and beautiful sunny days to live out a long happy life free ranging , but in reality these birds are bred for a purpose "food" And to compare conditions from a high volume hatchery to your back yard...
