Hello! Thanks for replying. I would just put the chicken's head through the bag right on the chopping block, do your thing, and then hang the bad on a screw or nail on the wall. The chicken can be restrained by hand, but I don't think a chicken flopping around in a feed bag would bruise the meat.I have a couple questions...
1 - Someone (edited to add: @BYCforlife it looks like it was you ) mentioned using a feed bag instead of a cone...do you just "hang" the bag somehow? How do you keep the chicken from flopping around in the bag since it is not as sturdy as a cone?
2 - As far as putting the bird in the fridge goes is there any reason they can't go straight from being gutted and rinsed to the freezer?
Thank you all for the posts here...they have really helped me prepare for our upcoming butchering session(s)
