We actually processed him Friday evening, but tonight we just had our first homegrown chicken dinner here. While we are still feeling a bit philosophical about the whole responsibility aspect of raising and butchering our own meat ... that is one gourmet-tasting chicken.

Good for you! I bought 20 chicks at Christmas and half turned out to be roosters. We have already eaten 3 of them. The rest are in the freezer. Very good, tasty and we know what they ate and how they were raised. Congrats on your first processed chicken that you raised.
