Has anyone here raised Bielefelder's strictly for meat? How long did they take to get to a decent size?

It wasn’t the Delawares fault.why did you give away your Delawares? A friend and I are thinking of getting some as meat birds this year, did they not work well for you?
If nobody else pipes in I'll know in a month or two. I have some in the incubator now set to hatch on the 20th.Following as I'd like to know too.
I didn’t end up keeping them. I’m running low on room hahaha. I’m trying to decide who to keep from my layer flock so I can make room for some Delaware’s. My daughter got some bantams that are taking up my little coop :-/Yes @Bookworm0124 i don’t remember hearing how yours grew out and what you kept?
I also sold of my hatchery Delaware... late layer, never reached DP size... NOT impressed. Though I'm not easily impressed.why did you give away your Delawares? A friend and I are thinking of getting some as meat birds this year, did they not work well for you?
That was my birthday and I'm waiting for Bielefelders (until February and April) right now!If nobody else pipes in I'll know in a month or two. I have some in the incubator now set to hatch on the 20th.
