Welcome to Old Folks.....

Thanks, had a bad day.

Ok, I have a couple questions...

What, exactly, are you using that for? Original head lopping or removing the neck to make a nice carcass... or both?

How much?

It is for 2 inch pipe so it is not that big and cost is $14.98.

It pops the skull off from the neck so it kills instantly. Nothing I have tried works as fast for this. Pruning shears were not as good as this is.

I finished processing the boys from the easter hatch today. On the processing thread a pipe cutter from home depot was recommended and I finally started using it. It is awesome!

Give it a try next time it is processing time.

I had one in the cart, think it was around $10? DW asked what I needed it for and then made me put it back Lol.
I have to process ALL of my chickens except for the naked necks I'll be keeping for breeding. Going to be some work, around a couple dz...
I'm going to try to get rid of white giant group on Craigslist first, will be hard processing the giant rooster, grown quite fond of the ole boy.

Capricorn Farm, it's only metal. What is important is that you and any passengers are all right, I hope.

My number 2 egg is finally starting to get down to business. I think Burd screaming her head off every 10 minutes followed by me shining the flashlight through the incubator canopy has convinced it that it was time to get the heck outta Dodge.

Ronott1 I will never be able to look at my husbands PVC pipe cutter the same way.

Brilliant idea, though.

Off to thin out and transplant mammoth red mangles, hear thunder though...
Looks like enough here to thin transplant to double the patch.

It should make it back into your cart one day!

It is hard to process them sometimes.
