i have had this rooster since it was a chick back in november but now i have 2 neighbors complaining about my chickens so i have to get rid of them (its just weird for 2 years no complaints then all of a sudden 2 neighbors at once, it my stupid neighbor next to me he is such a chicken butt lol, i think he talked to the neighbors behind me to say something i really hate people like this) well enough with that rant, well anyways so i was wondering at what age is good to process a rooster is 6 months too young?
At six months his getting kind of old. You might want to let it rest in the frig two or three days. I would then marinade in yogurt (if grilling) oa vingar based marinade. If you've got a neighbor issue procees that rooster THIS morning.
Hey, people have been cooking not only young roos fro hundreds of years but for some recipes, a roo at least 1 year old is necessary. check out this video on traditional "coq au vin":
thanks everyone for your answers it will be taken care of real soon, i think i am going to keep my other birds i dont care about the neighbors but i am going to process this rooster
Invite the neighbors over to help you chop, pluck & gut the rooster. If they do, then invite them to the fresh chicken dinner.
As long as you get rid of your crowing rooster, and your local laws allow chicken keeping I don't think your neighbors can force you to get rid of all your chickens. As far as whether they like it or not, I would not care at this point. They sound like vindictive jerks.
