Just completed first butcher - have a few questions.

Good job.

I don't know what volume of blood it would be, but sometimes it will clot and not all run out. I keep a garden hose handy to spray the area for a bit.

Cut out the injury now, before cooking. Bacteria could spread.

I rest mine between 2-4 days in the fridge before cutting upt to freeze or using. This lets rigor mortis pass and the meat will be more tender. You can brine, but I don't bother. Especially for stewing hens or moist cooking methods. They'll get tender anyway.
