Title: Plucked and dressed
Post by: Helencus on August 28, 2010, 11:12:21 am

Just plucked and dressed my first chicken with the help of my dad. Not too difficult but I know I was warned about the smell but phew... Not nice after a few wines last night!

Well done :D
I'm not looking forward to my first one either, but hopefully the rewards will be worth it :)

Wish I'd had them whilst I was doing it but might be considered a tad excessive at 9 am  ;DLooking for some day old sassos now I know I can do it.
