In this video, our family works together to process chickens in the winter to make room for new pullets come spring. Laying hens begins to decrease egg production at around 2-3 years old. To keep production up, it’s best to cull through your hens every now and again, adding fresh pullets to keep egg production strong. We haven’t quite done that over the years, and our layers continued to get older and older and our flock bigger and bigger. We would add fresh faces to the brood but neglected to narrow down our older layers who continued to produce less and less. Fresh pullets were due to arrive in early spring, and it was time to do some house cleaning. We typically raise a brood of 50 meat birds each spring to process in the summer for the fall and winter, but we have never processed chickens in the cold months. This was an entirely new experience for all of us! We continue to be excited about posting fresh farm and homestead content to our channel each Monday!
