I try to buy local farm-raised chickens, but they're so expensive. We eat more chicken then beef so I was hoping to be able to source locally and still not spend too much. (A 3-4 lb whole pasture raised chicken cost me $25...)
How much time do you think it takes you each day for your 25...
I live in the suburbs and chickens are out of the question in my backyard... however, there are several local farms around, and I'm debating asking if they'd lease or lend a bit of their property for meat bird raising next summer.
I'm curious how much time raising 25-50 meat birds take each...
