Killing chickens for food
« on: October 13, 2010, 08:56:08 PM »
So i am watching survivour and one tribe won 3 chickens, 1 rooster and 2 hens.
They decided to eat one, and made an incorrect choice.
So what would you do.
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Rooster 4 sure!  :tup:

My extended family has an annual "Pluck-a-thon" that always draws a crowd.  Helps cuz it's a lot of work if you have a bunch. There is no misconception in any of our kids minds where their tasty drummies come from. We start'em young, first catchin, then lopin, and then on to the gutin table and plucker. The value goes way beyond the tender farm raised freezer fowl.

Little off topic I know but reading the posts made me think of it.

The rooster- after I collected some fertile eggs just in case!
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming, "WOO HOO! WHAT A RIDE!!"

That's thinking ahead, though the hens will stop laying if they are broody enough to hatch the eggs....   :rolleyes:

One hen, you will need the rooster to do his thing. Then let them hatch a couple and then whack.  :chuckle:

A rooster is not needed for hens to lay eggs.
It's a TIKKA thing..., you may not understand.
