Wow that is truly blowing my mind lol I guess I forgot that they use different breeds for whole chickens which run smaller. And the woody breast thing is a symptom of the birds getting huge really fast so I should have inferred they were getting that big but it’s just like tripping me out. Like a dinosaur chicken lol. Chicken sourcing is tough right now, especially if purchasing from a farm is out of the question, and unfortunately, for most it is. Glad you rescued that one! Good luck out there!

I have literally never heard of an 8 pound chicken. That is fucking huge. Hope it was tasty though!
