How I Process My Meat Birds at Home | Backyard Homestead Chicken Harvest | Cornish Cross Meat Birds

Today I’m walking through my full backyard process for harvesting a Cornish Cross meat bird here on the homestead. I show my outdoor setup, how I prepare, and the tools I use from the harvesting station to the scalding setup, plucker, and cleanout table. I keep everything educational and beginner-friendly so anyone raising their own meat birds can learn from my experience. This is real homesteading, real food, and part of my journey toward becoming more self-sufficient. If you’re getting into backyard chickens, meat birds, sustainable living, or starting your own homestead, this video is for you.
