    Buff Orpington Red Ranger Cross

    I have a large Old English Buff rooster and several Red Rangers I am raising and I wanted to know if anyone has tried this cross or has any input of what the offspring would be.

    Organic feed?

    I live in NW Georgia and wanted to feed my new flock organic. So two questions. Is it worth it? Where's the cheapest place to get it? From what I've researched, it's through the roof expensive.
