(The fans would be for if I work in my garage because I live in the South, my garage is not ventilated or A/Ced, it gets nasty hot in there unless it's the dead of winter, in which case I'd need heaters instead!)
Yeah the first one I had blood all over my clothes... got a plastic apron and after a few batches, realized there's no blood on it any moreI processed chickens in my front yard in the City of Salisbury one time. Nieghbors came over and chit chatted and got free thighs and drumsticks. It all depends on your neighborhood. I now process them on the Kitchen Table, as I got better and faster with processing I also made less of a mess, it helps that I skin chickens and do not pluck them. so not many feathers escape to the floor. If I processed my first Chicken in the kitchen It would have been a mess. Once I learn the little tricks to make it easy I can do it with little to no mess.
True! you get so good at it that its not even a mess. I even have a bucket lined with a chicken feed bag (paper if I compost, plastic if I have to put it out with garbage) and as I removed stuff it falls right in with no effort on my part I became so organized with it. I skin them hang the skin over the edge of the table, then I remove the guts and they hang with the skin. I can cut off the tail at that point and they fall right in the bucket. a few stray feather have to be recovered but no mess, not on me, not even on the table although I still bleach wash the table before and after along with the knives used. However I am always going to be covered in blood because I am too cheap to buy a cone for the not so fun deed.Yeah the first one I had blood all over my clothes... got a plastic apron and after a few batches, realized there's no blood on it any more
I got some used cones that they don't fit right in. I cut up a Kitty litter jug and it works greatHowever I am always going to be covered in blood because I am too cheap to buy a cone for the not so fun deed.
I have some Tidy Cat jugs that might actually work for that.I got some used cones that they don't fit right in. I cut up a Kitty litter jug and it works great
