more shechita

I went shechting again yesterday. These are the pictures that were missing the last time I went. It seems the guy using the camera yesterday had a few more brain cells than the guy last time. He was actually able to figure out how to press the button and snap the shot!

The meat was chalak and everything was great! We even had a mashgiah. Another group had hired a shochet to slaughter for them. This elderly rav is the rav responsible for all shechita at one of the hashgochos in Israel. He watched me shecht and checked the lungs of the animal and everything was great.

    Haven't seen anything like that since PETA.

    Did you let it walk around after you cut its throat?

    only by fowl and "chaya" (commonly defined as undomesticated animals such as deer) does one need to pour it over the soil and cover it. by regular cattle (sheep and cows) there is no such mitzva or obligation.
