I often wondered why when I have been over to you guys everyone hangs by the head, I guess tradition?

Here all animals are hung by the back legs, our reasons are that this helps the blood drain away from the better cuts of meat, i.e. the haunches, saddle etc, and you can easily split while it is hanging.
