I am having half of my meat birds processed tomorrow. It is the first time for this couple to process birds for others. It is also our first time. We are putting live birds in cardboard boxes and dropping them at the farm at 8:00 am. They will do the processing and we will return to pick up.
What should we take to have the processed birds put in for the 45 minute ride home. We plan on using 55 gallon trash cans to soak them in the brine water for 24 hours at home. Should we leave a can with them or use something else that will weigh less? It will be 12 birds this week. Should we use water and/or ice or just wait till we get home?
Please, I was just cleaning the cans and realized that I had no plan on how to get them home and what I should give the young couple to put them in after processing.
Any and all suggstions welcomed!!!!
