This is a different kind of chicken keeping.
Interesting to watch the extreme growth rate of these birds.
Free-ranging meat birds have to give forth healthier more nutritious meat.

Most of us eat meat, and most of us buy it in a package. We should be able to raise and prepare our own food. We have lost the basics of taking care of our own selves, in a way.

It’s good to know that you CAN raise meat birds that don’t break their legs, drop dead from heart failure, and live a dull life. Healthier chicken tastes better too.

I liked this article. I would have liked more information on the taming/discipline part. I think I would like to have a rooster, but I admit I am a little afraid.

This is good to know. This is my first winter with chickens, and I did have some concerns about cold tolerance. So far they don’t seem to mind the cold at all.

I'm in Nebraska, and winters can be frigid with high, blizzard-like winds. Unless it's well below 0 for several days, I never use heat. Today it's sunny and 30, and they're out in the dust bath.

I bought a PFM partly for the extra choices involved, but mostly because I wanted to support the site. I have found this site to be invaluable to me as a new chicken keeper with no previous experience.
