Just to make sure that nothing fishy happens with ours we usually slaughter on farm and do our own processing. This time round we are sending them off, but its a friend of the family. We have found that doing it ourselves we get a lot more as we can take the extra time to get all the usable parts. Not sure about the rules and regulations over there, if your allowed to process your own. It’s not nearly as hard as it seams and with a little instruction, and a couple time doing it, it becomes easier. (Although it is defiantly a three person job.)
