Watch this BEFORE you process chickens for the first time
Raising animals that you plan to harvest for food comes with a great responsibility. We felt the full weight of that responsibility when we processing our first batch of cornish cross meat chickens.

Well said. No matter what you do, it's usually just the starting that's hard. And usually not as bad as you expected it to be.
For all the nonsense.. every once in a while the YT algorithm does work. I'm glad it brought me here. Great video. You have a new subscriber. Looking forward to more from you.

Definitely one of my favorite comments. Thank you!!!
Good video - I've processed some quail before but a few days I ran a "test run" and processed three roosters. My setup was a bit different and I skinned vs plucked because of what I have available to me, but there is that moment leading up to it where it's like "ehhh do I really have to do it?" I told my wife, it makes us appreciate the food we eat much more versus going to the store and buying it off a shelf without thinking twice about it. Told each fella thank you as we processed them. Plan to do more this weekend. They will give us meat in our freezer (plus cut down on the crowing haha - we got 10 roosters from a straight run of 10 we got...talk about BAD LUCK)
