Actually, there are many who home process their poultry. I know of some
very well known people in both Virginia and Tennessee who process their own
poultry. I believe the number allowable for on-farm processing is 20,000 birds
per farm. If wrong I would surely appreciate being corrected. I do process my
own meats for family consumption including pork, lamb, beef, goat and other.
However, my real concern with large numbers of poultry is the plucking! I HATE
and will not do it, but have found no commercial processors of meat who do
poultry.

The processing of meat seems a more complex route than I had
anticipated with the need to have my lamb, goat, and beef
commercially processed and sold straight from the processor since
it's supposedly illegal to sell a cut up carcass as cuts of meat
from a freezer. However, I understand we can process our own
chicken own the farm,
I have never heard of a state that allows home slaughter. Doesn't all meat product have to be either State inspected plant or USDA inspected plant or buthcher shop.
That is the laws in our state for all meat product.
