Thinking about next spring. I want to try doing some meat birds but am not entirely sold on the Cornish X thing, and also want to get some Buff Orpingtons to see how I get along with them as layers and possibly to breed... so I was thinking...
1)Would surplus and cull BO's be reasonable eating? (like, any better than any other basically layer breed)
2)With respect to #1, would this depend on where I got stock from (are there some lines of BOs bred more for large body as opposed to show or laying?)
3)Does this sound like a reasonable idea, or not so much?
Thanks,
Pat
