Egg bound chicken? :(

See, the problem had lay in the fact that we had become quite knowledgeable about keeping chickens alive, but knew little about killing them.

I broke her neck in the first swing for sure, but between my noodle arm and the machete being shit (My advice doesn't apply to people who feel the need to flaunt their various machete knowledge and know-how, but for people who DON'T know their machetes and find them in the shed, figuring it's the best blade you got for the job at the time. Bunch of dick-waving blowhards here I swear...) it just didn't go through for another dozen whacks or so.

Breaking the neck is much cleaner, I agree now that I know it.

It was a learning experience.

Get a real machete. or use a cleaver.

The cleaver is for after they've been bled.

If you screw up, you're going to make a huge mess and distress the poor bird more than you need to.

This is why you break their necks, or bleed them out, and then deal with things like removing the head.
 
That's great guys, but can we get back to the chicken fucking jokes again?
 
Can this be merged with the anal glands thread?

The restraining order has been lifted and the chicken is doing fine despite the unnecessary fingering.

She was attacked by a fox last summer. When I got to her, she had blood all over her head and was just laying still in the dirt blinking. We brought her inside for the night and put her in a box with a towel. I thought for sure we'd wake up to a dead chicken, but she perked up the next morning and returned to normal after a few weeks. We've closed up the hole that the fox went through and haven't seen any since. We did end up with a couple roosters and they would mount her and rip up the back of her neck, so the roosters are now separate from hens.

So, after the unnecessary fingering, the fox attack and the violent rapes, she's doing quite well. :)

Chickens can go through menopause? Guess there's only one thing left to do. Pluck that chicken and throw it on a rotisserie.

No, calcium pills, lotsa Ben and Jerry's and DVD series sets of Nurse Jackie, silly! And an annual trip to Ashland.
