Roosters Gone



NIGEL:
Well after a two days at it by myself, the remaining 11 roosters were culled & processed. It was taking me about 45 mins to process 2 roosters. Plucking is messy & takes time, as does eviscerating each of them! It is a LOT more draining psychologically doing it by yourself! The last rooster gave me a good hard peck on the neck as I was locking the door.

We now have 20 hens & 4 roosters left out of the original 46/47! Ready for winter.

  1. Wow... only 20 hens out of the 46 that you purchased... I think you were ripped off. Guess you enjoyed eating the others though.

  2. Yeah thinking that also. 2 roosters were extras. Well gave them a good life, otherwise they would have been crushed up.

  3. Oh dear... this almost sounds like an Admissions funnel conversation.
