I have 5 hens on my country place for eggs. I'm considering raising some meat birds next spring. This is still all in the planning/consideration stage. These chicks will be chemical free free range birds. They are ready to process in 8-10 weeks from the time I get them.
My husband and I eat dark meat so when processing day comes, we would take the legs and thighs and likely get rid of most of the rest. My neighbor said she wanted some of the breasts but i'm not sure she could eat something we processed. I'm not sure I can eat something I process.
Anyway, would anyone be interested enough to help on processing day to get some free chicken parts? Hubs says he can kill but won't process, once it is dead it becomes food so I don't think I'll have any difficulty processing.
I don't want to get into any legal issues involved in selling food so it is a question of labor for farm fresh chicken feet and parts.
Anyone have any interest?
