I want a net weight of 1.4 kgs. What wieght should the chicken be, before being proccesed? Is there a formula? Ok , i know my contribution to this forum is only asking. The reasons for this are 1- my poor english, 2- this is a new hobby for me . Sorry. My be one day i will learn more, and contibute more.
I've read the net weight (or dressed weight) is usually about 2/3 of the live weight. Don't worry about asking questions, that's what this forum is for .
Quote:You previously asked about Ross 308 Broilers. Go back to the Ross site- http://www.aviagen.com/ss/assets/Te...r/Ross_308_Broiler_Performance_Objectives.pdf And look at page 20. You can caluclate it from there. Looks like a 2 kg live weight bird will yeild about 1.4 kgs eviscerated.
