    Ranger breeding project

    I am told its the texture of the meat, Half of which comes from what they are fed more than genetics. If Had access to affordable Bresse I would get them to see what they fuss is but I get the feeling if I take any decent type of Dual Purpose bird and feed them Milk Soaked Grains for the...

    Ranger breeding project

    I found Naked Necks and Red Rangers to be a great combination. The Naked Neck I was breeding with was very calm and non aggressive and it offset the aggression in the Red Rangers I had. The meat was great and very easy to process due to less feathers. I skinned mine because the plucking...

    Ranger breeding project

    I prefer we do buy and sell in the states section but I think they have rules requiring we go to that other section but I haven't seen enforcement of that rule in states section so maybe they allow it there. Not sure what the rules are but the states section on BYC makes more sense to buy and...

    Thats what Craigslist is for. You can even profit off of it if you sell them fast enough. If it takes too long you lose money in feed. Best to advertise them before they arrive. When I do this I either break even or take a small loss which is still better than paying a small order fee.

    Ranger breeding project

    The Red Rangers I had and bred did not need their feed rationed, I kept their feeder full and they still foraged first then hit the feeder. I would hatch out their mixed offspring about the same time I bought CX and when I ration fed the CX the Half Red Rangers I had would take the lead...

    Ranger breeding project

    Sounds like a time consuming project, I used to have a lot of those then I learned I can only have one and I can't even have that now until after I move to a bigger plot of land. I myself love Red Rangers and I loved crossing them with heritage birds to make some really good table birds. my...
