  1. When white plumage is soiled and dirty, it does not look good in a show cage. Birds with light-colored plumage (such as white, blue, or buff) should be washed before they are taken to a poultry show. Birds with dark-colored plumages such as Barred Plymouth Rock chickens, Rouen ducks, and Bronze turkeys, very seldom need to be washed unless their plumage becomes severely soiled.

    Learning to wash birds is not difficult, but it is best to practice on some birds not intended for exhibit. It is best to wash birds the day or night before they are to be exhibited or taken to the show.

    If you are washing a number of birds, the multi-tub method is best (a soaping tub & 2-3 rinse tubs). If you only have a few to wash, it can be done in the bathtub (large birds) or sink (bantam chickens and ducks). In either case, the area in which the birds are to be washed should be 80¡F-90¡F and free from drafts. You should have cages to place the birds in after they are washed. If the birds will be returned to floor pens after they are washed, it is important to place plenty of clean straw or shavings on the floor to keep the birds from becoming soiled again.

    the website below is pretty helpful -

    best of luck!! =-))


  2. 1

    Cut just below the point of the breast, holding down skin (if you left it on). Carefully run a knife down on each side of the r****m and under - do not cut into it.

    Step2

    Remove the crop by pulling up and slicing it off. This frees the esophagus.

    Step3

    Reach in and pull out the guts.

    Step4

    When guts are out scrape lungs, attached to the back ribs, loose. Cut tail off or remove the oil sac.

    Step5

    Rinse carcass inside and out. Place in a bucket of fresh cold water.
