Bruise or something else?

[geeky_farmer]

So today when we processed our five week old Cornish X Roos, two of them had some greenish coloring on the skin/flesh near one of the wings? The inside of the birds looked normal, no problems I could see.

One of them fell out of the killing cone (cut down traffic cone.)

A Bruise, or something else? Safe to eat? The whole bird any of it?

Thanks.

cut the green out; it's flesh that was damaged & didn't get enough oxygen. don't eat it.

Both of the areas are about quarter sized. I will section those birds and cut out those areas.

Other then that area, you would think the chickens are OK to eat?

yep, don't forget to rest them though
