On-Farm Slaughter
Many of our customers are accustomed to doing their own slaughtering and
butchering. We are pleased to be able to provide them with the opportunity to
do so on our farm.
On-farm slaughter is done on an appointment-only
basis. To schedule a slaughter time, please call
us at (208) 883-5548.
Our current price is $1.40 per pound,
liveweight.
When you come to our farm, we will
have the lambs ready for you. Prior to slaughter, we will help you
weigh the lambs and calculate their price. Please know that, in order to comply
with laws and regulations, we are not able to help you slaughter or butcher. As
such, you will need to provide your own knives and other equipment.
We provide soap and water and a place
where you can do the slaughter and butchering.
We ask that you place the animal waste
(offal, hide, head or anything other else you do not want) in one of the bags
we provide. We will haul this to the dump for you. If there is something more
we can do for you to make your visit to our farm more comfortable, please let us
know. We are constantly trying to update and improve our practices.
Our
farm is located just a few miles east of Moscow at 1060 Wallen Road. Here are
the directions:
- Head east from Moscow on the Troy highway.
You'll go past Safeway and
the cemetary.
- Turn left on Mill
Rd.....That's less than a minute after the speed limit goes up
to 55
mph, right before the golf course. Mill Road will wind a bit for a mile or
so.
- Turn right onto Robinson Park Road.
- After a mile or so,
the road comes to a Y with several grain bins in the cleft of the Y.
-
Turn right onto Wallen Rd. We're 0.8 of a mile down Wallen Rd.
- Our
house is on the left. It is tan with white trim.
If you see sheep,
you're at the right place!
