Slaughterfest 2010
I can understand that raising and eating your own chickens is not something that everyone aspires to, but I do. My cousin Merissa and her husband are becoming chicken experts and they allowed me to take part in the slaughtering of their chickens. I didn't like the part where we had to slit their throats, but the rest was okay. I really like the idea of being self sufficient and not depending on the grocery store for everything. For video of the process, see the following:

wow--that is so interereting. I watched the video--I like how he discreetly avoided the bloody part--but it stopped before I could see the plucking machine. I wanted to see that! I've always wondered about how chickens were plucked (not that it keeps me up at night, though)
Very cool--and they can say their chickens are 100% natural! That is very very cool.
But not cool enough for me to stop going to the grocery store. :)
I'm glad you thought it was interesting. I wouldn't say it was pleasurable, but I am glad I did it. I just added a link to the plucker, so you can see it.
Holy cow! I could never do it! I'll stick to gardening, and keep buying my already plucked, boned, and skinned chicken!
i am so jealous
my oh my, I'm loving those videos that you all made. I'm like Chelsea, I've always wondered how they pluck a chicken. Very interesting. I hope the effort was worth it.
