    Trade raising meat birds for processing?

    Thank you so so much!!! Since you're so knowledgeable, I can't help but ask... Do you have any recommendations for hen breeds to cross with our RIR roo? We have two RIR hens so we'll breed them, but we would love some other cool crosses. You know, to keep things nice and complicated! 🤣🤪
