I've butchered a handful of chickens before now, but they've all been roosters or cockerels so far. Never a female.
Tomorrow, i'm planning to butcher one of my laying hens who has been injured.
She's 36 weeks old.
What should i expect in terms of toughness from a 36 week old free ranged buff orpington pullet/hen?
Will she be as tough as a male would be at that age?
Any tips, info, advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
