my friend is raising guineas for mostly eggs and pest control. This morning she found a cock with a broken neck in her coop. She isn't enamored with the idea of processing it so decided to give it to me. I've read forums and watched videos. I think I know what I'm doing. My biggest issue is that she wants some feathers if possible but skinning looks the easiest way to dress it. Is there a way to get feathers off after skinning?
My other question is when to process it. Right now it's in rigor. What's the best timeline for skinning/plucking and gutting the bird? Can I just leave it somewhere cool and dry a day or 2?
