Was it just tough or what made it the worst?

I covered the tractor in this gazebo canopy. I put a Rubbermaid on its side and put a thick layer of shavings. They're avoiding it.

Quote: Not real sure. I'd never seen dark meat in a chicken, for one thing. Maybe due to the BCMxRSL cross? And, for being cooked as long as it was, I'd have thought it would've been a bit more tender. Funny; DW wouldn't even eat any 'cause she'd watched it grow from a hatchling, yet she'd be the first to tell you that the lower animals were created to provide food.

The meat was dark like that because it was allowed to live a chicken life. It wasn't confined to a small space where it doesn't get to use it's muscles. The first cockerel that we ate was almost all dark meat as well.
