How do you cull your birds?

How do you cull your birds?

Typically broomstick method, or pellet gun for those that are injured, or ill.

For food, we kill by decapitation.

Well, the cockerel's foot will be just fine. It's not frostbitten, just alittle red, & swollen from the blood flow being restored. Got lucky.

That's good to hear.

Yep.

I'm gonna keep a memento of my Pea too, I'm gonna keep her pelt. I'll have to remove her pelt before the necropsy though.

Thinking my boy Dino has retired himself. I haven't seen him breeding his hens.

If that's the case, I'll have to replace him.

Did the necropsy. She had a reproductive crisis. She was internally laying, & her uterus/Egg Shell gland was ruptured with a shell-less egg inside.

I didn't keep her pelt, cause I messed up.

Dino, just decided to start breeding again. Was worried for a moment.

Looks like we're finally going to butcher the chickens that I need gone next Tuesday.
Last few times we planned, got pushed back.
