This article was well written but is more opinion than fact. Everyone’s experience is generally different with breeds.

This is good advice for those who are getting into raising meat chickens for the first time. We processed our first batch this past week and it was not easy emotionally. It takes a lot of mental coaching to yourself at first.

While this has some helpful info and pictures, the title was misleading. I clicked thinking I would see a little more info on various meat birds comparing them at the same age with weights for info.

I found this article at the perfect time. We are getting ready to order our next batch of meat birds and after everything I had read online and seen, I was avoiding the Cornish X. We have been using the Freedom Rangers but the Cornish X are always much cheaper. After reading this article I think I am going to give it a go.

i love the idea of a regulated feeder but while I loved the pictures, I would need a lot more explanation to even know how to start building something like this myself. The article just didn’t have all the details.
