Hey There,
I'm a few weeks out from processing my first batch of meaties. I am starting to think about the set up and supplies that I'll need for 12 birds. Does anybody have pictures of their set up? My processing location is near the coop, but out of sight of the other chickens. We have access to water there. I have a restraining cone, pinning knife and lung remover on order.
The supplies that I have on hand are:
*plastic table on metal legs
*turkey deep fryer w/ thermometer & gas tank
*boning knife
*kitchen shears
*plastic tote for chilling
*bucket for collecting blood
*rubber gloves
*towels
*empty feed sack for "scraps" such as feathers, entrails, etc.
What else am I missing? I plan on freezing them whole. What should I put them in? Any suggestions will be helpful.
Thanks,
Lauren
