Thank you for this video in showing this kosher/proper way to slaughter animal. By just bleeding it out, they do not flail around gasping for oxygen, which I’ve seen in hallel slaughters. This way the animal goes to sleep from the bleeding out and is not suffocating/suffering. This is also Scriptural. I’ve also seen how a farmer holds chicken in lap and it is very comfortable, no stress, bleeds out, and goes to sleep without any struggle. I also appreciate your respect for the life of the animal.
Excellent calm tutorial that was thorough in explaining all aspects of harvesting and processing. Thank you for educating us to be able to rear and harvest healthy, safe food for people and their families.
We appreciate your feedback and it is reinforcing that it is positively received. There are more processing videos that are broken into segements for each of the stations so you can review.
I noticed that the turkey didn’t flinch at all when the cuts were made ... it didn’t hurt it at all! The flapping happens at that point whether you cut the head off entirely or just slice the arteries and bleed it out slowly. It really is electrical impulses. We take care of our animals, and they take care of us. Thank you for a great presentation.
Thank you for sharing! I am not religious, but have to say AMEN on thanking the turkey for giving its life for us to eat. I am a reformed city gal and while it still breaks my heart to have to kill an animal, we give thanks to the animal and make sure to use all the parts possible to not waste its life. Even before we raised our own, we bought a butchered pig. I was so freaked out over knowing this animal i never met gave its life for me. Prior to this moment, I didn't fret (other than wasted money) over any store bought meat I let go bad and had to toss. Anyway, long story short - when I hesitate over processing one of the goats or chickens I've grown to love, I remind myself that this animal had a MUCH better life than any meat you can buy in a store.
It's of critical importance to have SHARP KNIVES! Your senses are your best management tool. You will be able to feel the tension and resistance as the blade dulls. A dull knife at the kill can cause prolonged pasing and bleed out for the bird. We keep sharpeners at the kill cone & eviseration stations and sharpen them multiple times while processing birds. It depends on the knife, the birds, honing and sharpening skills. Safe to say though, you will absolutely need to sharpen your knife if doing more than 10 birds.
@@FrannysFarmif your turkeys are raised on pasture, won’t they still have grass in their crops when feed is withheld for 24 hours prior to slaughter? It’s going to be my first time🙏🏽Thank you for the great video!
I've seen plenty of poultry killed this way and have seen nothing in this method to convince me that this slaughter method is humane. An individual electric poultry stunner seems to be to be the best - rendering the bird instantly unconscious before the throat cut so it feels no pain. You are kidding yourselves and lying to everyone else by saying that the bird struggling is purely electrical. What it is is the bird recognising and being sensitive to pain, the whole experience being traumatic and frightning for it. An electric stun also does not compromise on the quality of the meat as the heart continues beating to allow a full bleed out. It is in fact illegal where I live in the UK for small scale poultry producers to kill birds without stunning.
Right? Here in my country you HAVE to stun before killing and both procedures have to be right followed after each other so the animal doesn’t regain consciousness. You would have to pay a hefty fine or even risk prison and would never be allowed to keep animals again.
Are you high? How many cute baby animals are chopped to bits when a combine runs through a field to harvest your vegan grains? How many billions of bees are enslaved and killed to pollinate your fruits and vegetables?

The best I've seen on humanly dispatching the animals excellent work.

Thanks for all the info. Glenn
Every Thanksgiving my mother and I watch your videos, to go over everything & prep ourselves before processing. Thanks for this!! By far the best 🦃
Thank you for making us a part of your family tradition. We'd love to see your finished bird!

How long do you scald the bird for before defeathering?
Do you refrigerate all the organs for 5 days too before you sell them
Darn I was hoping to see some kids pitching in to help. 😮

I have 10 Turkeys to process and cant find the bags you all mentioned can you offer any direction on that?
Just look up heat shrink bags on Google. They are all over.
Do you sell the beard and head combs to pharmaceutical company's for processing into collagen for joint relief?
Where do you buy your neck cutter?
Looked like a pvc pipe cutter.
@@shermdog6969 it is a pipe cutter buy at lowes or any hardware store
How many turkeys can you use a knife for before you have to sharpen your knife?

And I bet you drive a polluting vehicle. Throw your plastic in the trash. And use enough energy to power 3 homes.

Correct infact this is almost the Halal method

Battery contactors!!
I could not do that in a million years. I would starve first.
Starving is not an enjoyable experience. You have no idea what you'll do when you are "actually" starving.
Me too. These people who do this are inhuman
Bye.
shame on the abusive nature of humans
Shut up cry baby
@@anytirellc do it to your Family would they enjoy it?
You people are sick & will answer to God
