Well, I culled birds. Last week I had to put down a 4 day old chick. I cried.
Today my husband and I butchered 3 cockerels. My husband killed them and I did everything else. Wow that was heavy.
I feel quite a sense of accomplishment now. I have never even seen anything killed before except for fish. I do feel more prepared for hatching and growing up lots of chicks for my blue laced project now though. If I cannot sell the culls as Easter Eggers I will be able to use them to either feed my dogs or family (depending on size of bird).
Whew....
