Best Answer

It very much depends on the breed & how the neat (singular of cattle) was finished. Many of our 'modern' breeds give you less meat in the package per pound of live weight. Some of the older breeds, in their original form, give a much better hanging or packaged weight.

Hanging weight (after slaughter and dressing) is approx 2/3 of live weight. Packaged weight, after butchering, (cutting and trimming), you will loose approx another 1/3 of weight, leaving on average a third or a little more of original live weight. Some breeds however will give you much better packaged weights, as much as 45% packaged weight & 70+% hanging weight.

"Live weight" refers to how much the animal in question weighs just before going through the slaughter line. The term is used as a comparison to post-slaughter weight, called "carcass weight" or "hanging weight" so that slaughter loss (head, tail, hooves, organs, and blood) can be measured.

How much weight will a life chicken lose when slaughtered?

The weight loss of a chicken after it is slaughtered will depend on several factors, including the weight of the chicken before slaughter, the processing method used, and the cut of meat that is being prepared. Typically, a broiler chicken will lose anywhere from 20-30% of its weight after slaughter. This weight loss can occur due to the evaporation of moisture, blood loss, and removal of internal organs and feathers. For example, if a live broiler chicken weighs 4 pounds, the weight after slaughter and processing may be about 3 pounds. It is important to note that the weight loss after slaughter may vary depending on the processing facility or butcher. The weight loss can also be influenced by the temperature and humidity of the processing facility, how the birds are handled, and the time between slaughter and refrigeration.
