    Hi all,
    Is there a Licensed processor that anyone knows of in VT, NH, or MA? I've been sitting in the coop documenting who's laying and whose NOT since I've found fertilized eggs and I think I've more than enough roos...who ARE not crowing or growing spurs. So I've decided those IMPOSTERS are going to be split up....fed grower feed for 2-3 weeks and then right before Thanksgiving I am going to process them.
    Has anyone else processed EE's? Just wondering if I'm going to get good meat or if it is worth the processsing fee? [​IMG]

    ok....FYI...I'm not going to process the birds...I don't think they will make a good dinner. [​IMG] Their breastbones are very prominent and they are NOT that meaty.
    That said...I did find a Mobile Processor here in NH. He will come to your home and process your birds. I did not get the price he was charging but you can call him yourself if you wanted pricing.
