cluckingmad Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Hi guys, Had a quandry. Really want to raise our own meat birds however really struggling to get on a course on how to humanely dispatch and prepare a chicken for the table... I know most abattoirs won't prepare birds for you anymore, but does anyone know someone who would? Alternatively, is there anyone near to Stoke on Trent who'd do the deed(s) for me in exchange for a chicken?! xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I know this course has been attended by Omleteers and is recommended, but the furthest north is Northampton, not very near you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 There are courses near to us with Cotswold Chickens - still quite a journey for you though, perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Will PM you - happy to help, just distance is a bit far! Will see if I can find out more information and let you know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 There has been a date added to the website - at the moment it is 6th October but have spoken to Anthony and that is flexible so if Omleteers would be interested in collecting a group to go on the course and then for a get together/meal, like we did for the previous course that I and many others attended, other dates can be added Not sure if there is the interest but it may be worth starting another thread like before to see if there (I know advertising isn't allowed but it's already been directly mentioned) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
