My family and I are interested in becoming a little more self sufficient. We have done one round of Cornish cross chicks for the freezer already. It went well, but there were some lessons learned. We did pasture them.
We would now like to attempt ducks. The jumbo Peking.
The question...
While our family is already enjoying a small mixed flock for eggs, I've been tossing around the idea of raising some alternative poultry for meat. We unfortunately, do not have room to grow a decent sized chicken flock dedicated to meat. Quail seem to be more trouble than they're worth...
