You should totally keep the order. And make your mental notes about the process this time of year and make your decision about it next year.
Myself, I raise the Colored Rangers for 12-14 weeks, and really have a personal cutoff of August 1st, so that they grow up not needing any heat or lights, can eat all this free food out there aka nature and we do the processing the week before Thanksgiving. Perfect weather every year, perfect natural supply every year. Really decreased my per pound cost doing it this way. HOWEVER I would never have found what worked best for me, if I didn't try a few things first. Like learning that processing from may-september here in my climate is UNBEARABLE to me! but I had to try to know. and learning how peaceful it is not to have to consider an overhead light for chicks! these things to me are valuable lessons and you will learn what is important to you this way to. never shy away from experience
best of luck!
