Congratulations on deciding to Process your extra Roos!When I got my first chicks last year I never imagined I would want to eat my own birds. It took me awhile to eat the eggs! I was appalled when my husband suggested we eat our unwanted Roos. I gave them away instead and didn't want to know what the new owners had tended for them. Now I see the benefit of raising and eating our own birds. I just don't know if I can do it. I am willing to learn though. I wish I could have someone show me. I have a weak stomach and I'm not sure how it would go but I will never know unless I try. Anyone in the Pittsburgh area want to teach me?
I am trying something different this time. I am feeding the Cockerels that I am going to process Kamut Scratch soaked in milk for two weeks to see if it fattens them up. They have been eating it since Sunday. I will post the results when I process them. They are White Bresse.
Start with one for the first time.
