I would guess you just need your trained hunter number to sell to the dealer anyway , and if its for YOUR own consumption then that's it ,,, different if your selling it on , but may be wrong ??
ManyThanks fellasBy rights any body in the AGHE's fridge/premises should be identifiable with the tag number so they can prove chain/providence if inspected.
Hmm looks like we have two different views on this, Many ThanksI took an in fur carcass to Ben rigby game and they butchered it for me, I don't have my trained hunter as of yet but wasn't a problem
If Ben Rigby had been inspected he may well of been in the mire for having it on the premises.I took an in fur carcass to Ben rigby game and they butchered it for me, I don't have my trained hunter as of yet but wasn't a problem
It was for personal consumption they did the relevant butchering for me and I paid for it, not sure that's the same thing?If Ben Rigby had been inspected he may well of been in the mire for having it on the premises.
This has been done so many times and once again we have people saying that all you need is a hunter number to put deer into an AGHE. Rubbish. You MUST be a registered food business as well as having a hunter number. It's not a new thing either. At least 5 years ago this was required. Wanted: - Deer carcass
No, I get that. The fact is that he had a possibly diseased carcass on the premises that could have contaminated his whole site! We get a trained hunter number because we're deemed competent in inspecting dead animals and not moving diseased ones. Imagine if the deer you shot had Foot and mouth and you dropped it off at Rigby's. No head, no feet and no gralloch, so much harder for them to know that it had a notifiable disease.It was for personal consumption they did the relevant butchering for me and I paid for it, not sure that's the same thing?
Yeah that makes sense, it had the head and feet attached just not the pluckNo, I get that.

Ok, but I'm sure that you get what I mean.Yeah that makes sense, it had the head and feet attached just not the pluck
Yeah I completely agree just wanted to mention I did have it doneOk, but I'm sure that you get what I mean.
how much did he charge may I ask!I took an in fur carcass to Ben rigby game and they butchered it for me, I don't have my trained hunter as of yet but wasn't a problem
Was only 20.00 to do a muntjac, I asked them just to break it to the primals and leave the bones in ad I wasn't sure what i wanted to do with themhow much did he charge may I ask!
And how much did he break it down shanks steaks loin or just minimal haunches and stuff? Tia.
FYIhow much did he charge may I ask!

Very good value indeed I thinkFYI
Just had a muntjac in the jacket turned into sausages at the butchers and it cost me £25 which I think is very good value

Scott Rea you tube 32 min video is the one I use.Ok, but I'm sure that you get what I mean.
Get on You tube and learn how to do it yourself or put a shout out on here for someone local to show you the ropes once lockdown is over
Thanks mate, yeah I've seen the Scott Rea video also, I did want to try it myself but just don't currently have the space to do it safely and cleanly ( the garage is full and I don't think the neighbors would be super happy seeing me doing it in the garden) but i am keen to learn to do it as I feel it's all part of the experience, maybe I could tag along and watch you do it one day?Scott Rea you tube 32 min video is the one I use.
To be honest I’ve seen T.eddie post a lot recently and was depending on how things turn out offer him a carcass anyway as he is near me and saves me sorting it out. That said I don’t mind giving him my take on the video at sometime if he gets one himself post lockdown.
