    Raising meaties on the cheap.

    I just read in a hatchery notes that @ 5 days old you should feed cornish x 12 hours, and then take the food away for 12 hours, doing this in a cycle until they are ready to harvest, this will keep them from having heart attcks and loosing the birds...

    First batch of meaties! I'm so proud of myself for taking the plunge

    We bought our first batch of chickens in March this year and between to good to pass up deals and people giving us there easter chickens, [because the darnedes thing they get bigger] we ended up with right @ 50 chickens... Well through a few death by random things we ended up with 36+ chickens...
