Meat Chick in Benton, AR

[pond_ripple]

Accidentally ended up with a meat chick, likely Cornish Cross, with my order of pullets. Don't want to raise her alone, plus I'm not into that side of farming. So she needs a new place to go. I'm not sure of the gender but since it was in with my pullets I call it a girl.

(Awww.....welp, u could keep her and give her a life she never would've had. Otherwise, hope she finds a good home!)

It just seems a bit cruel to raise her as a pet. She's already almost twice the size of the others and her whole life we'd be trying to keep her from eating herself to death. These types of birds just don't seem built for healthy long lives. They're designed to live fast and eat everything in sight before harvest.

I found someone willing to take the chick and she's now in her new home!
