    Dual use bird

    We typically do layers and broilers once a year. Our layers ar a combo of Whyandotts and the broilers are red Rangers. I would like a dual purpose bird replacing 5-10 layers a year What is a good breed for this?

    As long as no one knows, a shot gun resolves the issue much faster

    Turkey Talk

    So last year we raised our first turkey a big breasted bronze. We got him in March, processed him in July/Aug and he came in at 33 pounds. In our opinion he grew too fast and we got him too soon Fast forward to now, we bought 6 heritage turkeys in June. Not doing our due diligence we didn't...

    Looking for Wyandottes.

    We currently have 5 silver laced Wyandottes and would like to get more. We are not stuck on the silvers as other colors might be cool. We would like to get them as local to ohio as we can. Looking for spring deliveries.

    Red Ranger Chickens

    We had 10 red rangers. We lost 2 to a fox and process all but the two hens. The hens are good layers, one egg a day, and very docile birds. The Roos at 12 weeks dressed out to 7 pounds and taste great. We had no leg issues other than one hen limps but seems ok as she is almost a year old.

    Ducks in general suck. They are noisy and crap everywhere. High maintenance. Don't buy into the romance of ducks as In a few months you will loath them.

    Agree. It should be GMO free but purina is a big sponsor of GMO. They want us to eat poison.

    What are these guys.

    We bought these as broilers but love the hens. We have 3 hens and 6 Roos. We plan to keep one roo and butcher the other 5. We also have 6 SLW hens which we dislike so they will become meat birds also. Any idea what these guys are?
