Well, I managed to get to 53 years of age without knowingly killing anything bigger than a spider, but yesterday was a first.
It took about 10 minutes to catch the troublemaker in the pen but I finally cornered it and got a rope around it. We took it to the outside loo and put some food and water in with it.
Viki tacked up and went for a ride on Banna
With Viki out of the way, it was time to do the deed.
Actually quite easy. A sharp knife to the jugular and then continue to cut down through the windpipe.
I think it took about a minute and I then put hooks through the back leg tendons and roped it up into an avocado tree


We took the carcass to or local friendly butcher, Kostas, in Armenoi. He cut it up into chops, legs, shoulders, etc and bagged it up (free of charge). When we got home, this is what we had.

Then started to skin it .........
The hardest part was removing the offal and internal organs.
End product. Just the feet to be cut off ...
