Processing Cornish X: A First Timer's Overview/Experience (pic heavy, only 1 "graphic")

[Parront]

“storeys guide to raising chickens” and
“The small scale poultry flock”
Both describe its so it helps the skin from continuing to heat after the scalding.

I did it when I processed two cockerels the other day, all the feathers came out easy peasy.
Just wondering what everyone else does, I’ve only done ducks up until the other day.

I do. Keeps from burning my fingers!

I'll have to try that. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for this! It's been ten years and many miles since I processed birds last. I read this last night and today processed 4 of my banty roosters with ease.

No problem. So glad it went well for you!
