We are wanting to do meat birds this year. Have not had chickens of any kind so we'll be real newbies at this.
We currently buy our chickens from a local farm and a bird about 3 lbs will cost us about $15 (which is $10 cheaper than they cost us when we lived in the Big City). So I'm thinking that we'll likely do better by raising them ourselves. Thinking of going heritage; reading this thread with interest.
