the deed is done

Here are some pictures of my first chicken slaughter. It will now become dinner tonight in the form of Coq a Vin. Only if I had a rooster.

Bleeding out
Tools of the trade
Plucked and ready to be eviscerated
Looks just like the one I brought at the supermarket not too long ago, just a few more steps to get there.
Ready for the Le Cresuset pot
Notice how much more fat is on this bird and the color of the thigh meat. I am sure that has to do with the fact it lived a little longer than a meat bird.

She was not a very friendly chicken. That is why the deed is done.
