Does anyone sweeten their chickens with any special foods right before processing? I have heard of feeding carrots the night before but I don't know... Also when is too old to butcher roos? I still have one extra rooster from last springs chicks. I have eaten about 5 roos since last summer. I like to make chicken and dumplings(saved the extra broth YUM) and also roasted one but it did not turn out good. I have read that you have to let them rest, this is probibly why. Any special ways you prepare fresh roast chickens, temp?
