Butchered Roosters

[Cwillenburg]

We butchered some roosters last week, and I'm wondering how long they will be good refrigerated. My husband comes home from work next Thursday and I'd like to cook them that day. This will be our first time eating something we raised.

Depends how cold the fridge is. Usually 5 to 7 days... I think you need to freeze

My family freezes them until we are ready to cook them. They can store for weeks that way.

Ok, thank you

I agree you should freeze them. 3 days in the fridge then into the freezer they go.
