Hi, I need to know approximately how many calories are in a chicken that is 1.2kg (with skin). I've tried googling but everywhere I look says something different. Thanks :)

    There will always be variables with livestock, but a whole chicken skin on is around 190 cals/100g's or about 2280 total cals.

    Are you going to eat the skin?

    Actually I might be high considering bone content. After looking at the meat only it's more like 1800-1900 cals.
