Chicken Processing!

Several weeks ago we went to some friend's house for a day of chicken processing. There were several families from church doing it together. This was old hat for them, but something very new for us! We braced ourselves for the worst, but it turned out not to be too bad. We learned lots that day and actually had a fun day! So be warned....................... the pictures are not for the weak stomached!!! :>)






Doomed to be dinner!
Mr. Jarod scalding the birds!
Hard at work cutting off heads and feet.
Owen and Madeline working hard.

Becca with birds in an ice bath!

Me and Mrs. Anna doing the "final check"
Hannah
Daddy (with his "puke face") and Mr. Phillip doing the eviscerating (the worst job!) Me and momma trying our hand at eviscerating. (It was pretty gross.)
End it with a cute picture of Madeline and Becca!

This is not gross at all! My grandmother used to do it and that is why she does not eat chicken or turkey or any bird for that matter!!!! I started a blog (www.hoodatt.blogspot.com). Come check it out when you have a chance........
