I have 4 Xtra Light Brahma Roos that will be 17 weeks next tuesday, They are super sweet birds and I hate the thought, but I must process them, that has been the plan from the start. I keep putting off the enevitable, but it must be done, Some weigh quite abit more than the others so do I process them all at one time or do I do 1 roo at a time and give them more time to gain some more weight? They all weigh pretty near to 6/7lbs now maybe a little more. I would like just to do it all at one time as this is very stressful for me. We were going to do it last Weds. but I was just sick all night long at work thinking about it, so if were going to do this, I think it best to do them all together and get it over with.(at least I think that would be best of my sanity! being the first time and all.) But what about the chickens if I let some wait will they be tough and stringy if I let them go a few extra weeks? Im trying to do the right thing here, just not sure what it is.
I know ive asked similar ?'s before but were getting down to the knitty gritty here and need some more info and moral support! Thanks Sandy.
