>>85854All of those. I got chickens when I was six (as a responsibility and a chore, not as a gift though I accepted them like one) and have had hens ever since.
I, being quite a pansy when it comes to killing animals, do let them live rather long (3-4years) before butchering them though. The previous 'generation' of chickens is currently residing in my fridge in the form of an exquisite pâté. Meat from old(er) chickens still has the same taste, but a rather unpleasant texture imho, hence no pan frying or anything like that.
Pic semi-related; I originally acquired bunnies with the intention to eat them too, but those fluffy bastards grab every chance they get to cuddle up, so I can't do it anymore.
