Butchering a chicken at home has so many benefits (bones for stock, a cheaper pound-for-pound price then any store brought chicken) and from what i can think off only one one drawback we can all guess what that is 🙂 the actual butchering. **WARNING: This post contains graphic photos. Because, well, this is a homesteading blog, and homesteading isn’t always rainbows and butterflies.

you must be careful when you remove the guts so as not to pierce the intestines or the gallbladder, both of which could make your family ill. Don’t let this deter you from butchering yourself, just learn how to do it the right way and you’ll do it perfect each time!
