unlacedgecko 1,466 Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 I did a sheep last year and struggled to get nine kilo of meat off her . mind you it was a small one 45-50% of live weight is the standard meat yield of a sheep. The intestines maybe eaten. However with each species there is DEFRA mandated material which must not be consumed (known as SRM or Specified Risk Material). For each species this material must be stained and then disposed of in an approved manner, mainly via a renderer. Burial or disposal in a domestic wheelie bin is not an approved method and so is illegal. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was meant for anyone else who didn't know. There is already someone who thought home slaughter was illegal. Just trying to spread some enlightenment on a Friday morning.
