Class Experience

Join me for an in-depth and practical class on processing meat chickens. As an experienced homesteader, with several years of hands-on practice, I am passionate about raising my own food and sharing this valuable knowledge with others. 

What Will Be Taught?
- Plucking techniques 
- Evisceration process
- Processing supply lists

Class Structure:
This class features step-by-step video demonstrations showing the entire process. I emphasize humane practices and careful handling of the chickens. While the culling will be explained with diagrams to maintain respect and sensitivity, the remaining steps will be fully videoed to provide clear, practical guidance.

Teaching Style:
My teaching style is straightforward and hands-on. I believe in providing clear, detailed instructions that can be easily followed. 


Additional Details:
**Graphic Content Warning:** This class includes graphic content such as blood, intestines, organs, and the butchering process. Viewer discretion is advised.

This class is ideal for aspiring homesteaders and anyone interested in learning how to process their own meat chickens with respect and care. Join us to gain valuable, practical skills and deepen your connection to your food source.
