Hello, I'm hoping that those who have been feeding FF to meaties for a while now will post specifics of how they do it, so that all of us newbies will have it condensed a bit (as opposed to dredging through 1700 pages in the other thread...
). I have specified free range or tractor chickens, because I imagine that this would affect how to feed them quite a bit. I will be free ranging my chickens during the day as soon as they are old enough, but since many cannot/ choose not to do that, I wanted to include those using the tractor system as well.
-how many chicks at once
-What you feed fermented (protein %, store bought/ home made, standard/non gmo/organic) for chicks, growers, and finishing
-How much do you feed them? (I have seen HUGE variations in this... 12 on 12 off, to no more than 30 min a day... So confusing!!!)
-your set up- tractor/free range
-What you are averaging in cost per finished chicken
Thank you all for sharing your experiences with us, this forum has SOO helpful!!
