According to "The Fabulous Beekman Boys" on Planet Green/Discovery TV, give them a vodka cranberry prior to the deed. It relaxes all the muscles.

have 3 gowing down today More BLRW roos-I hate offing them as they are each beautiful in their own way but man 18 BLRW roos is too much. Not only that but they havent started crowing yet and dont want them to start-they are about 13 weeks old now?? they should be around 3-4 lbs each I hope-we will slow roast them for dinner tonight Ill fill everyone in and try and get photos up again!

how do you get the rigamortis out by supper time. we have tried to process/eat in the same day and they come out very tough. First good one we did sat chillling in the fridge for 48 hours. would love to know your secret!

I too have found that 48 hrs is the best, If I'm butchering for the dogs I just boil as soon as I'm done, they don't know the difference, 24 hrs even is not enough time, but if you put it in a slow cooker they seem to do alright/

They killed the Thanksgiving turkey that am and ate it that afternoon. Would love to try their cheese.
