Best meat breed?

[extraordinaryfowl]

What is the best breed or some of the standard breeds for meat production? I have heard of Silver King but hear they also have low fertility rates. Is this true? I am looking for a good meat breed that can reproduce well. Thanks

utilty kings come in several colors silver is one i think you are talking about show kings other squabing breeds are gaint homers texan pioneers hubbels carneau these need to be squab producers not show type

utility kings or hubbles seem to be the choice of most

So your saying that Utility Kings are different then kings used for show?
Like there are utility/production lines and show lines?
