• Feb. 27, 2006 - Chicken Feathers & Cranberry Sauce
Hello!
We just finished our delicious chicken dinner. Since we are
talking about getting some chickens, my girls mentioned that we sure
are going to have a lot of chicken feathers around (when we butcher the
chickens). So that made me think, for those of your who
have chickens, what do you do with your chicken feathers?
Also, I usually buy canned cranberry jelly (I like both the lumpy and
the smooth kind, but the rest of the family prefers smooth). Does
anybody have a great recipe for cranberry jelly (that tastes close or
better than the can)?
Thanks a lot!

On the chickens...we have our chickens processed by an amish place for $1.25 per bird...so we don't have any feathers around our place. If the price goes up at all, we'll probably be doing them ourselves, and I'm honestly not sure what we'll do with the feathers..it's a great question!
On the cranberry sauce...if you buy a bag of fresh cranberries, there is a recipe on the bag. I followed that last Thanksgiving and it was really good. It was lumpy though...I would imagine you could strain it for the smooth variety. (?)
Have a great day!
