Bone marrow Quote by Ruby Parker Puckett
““Darkening of bones and meat around the bones occurs primarily in young broiler-fryer chickens (6 to 8 weeks old). The bones have not calcified or hardened completely, so pigment from the bone marrow seeps through the bones and into the surrounding area. Freezing also contributes to this darkening. This is an aesthetic issue, not a safety one.””
