    processing and selling in Texas

    Howdy all! I'm looking for information on the rules/regulations/requirements to process and sell meat in Texas. I know of the exemption allowed to small producers that harvest under 10k birds/year, which we would fall under. I'm just not sure exactly how to go about it and what all is required...

    Howdy! from SETX

    Howdy! We're a small family farm on the cusp of the Brazos Valley in southeast Texas. We are in the process of turning our hobby of keeping chickens for family use into a full fledged business that provides pastured eggs and meat to local customers. We raise Brahmas, barred and buff Plymouth...
