One chicken for kapporos
Question
Is it permissible to use one chicken to perform the kapporos ritual for several people?
Thank you
Answer
If the ritual is performed for several people at once, then you can use just one chicken. But if each person wants to do the kapporos separately, then this is not allowed, since each chicken should only be used once.
