I've got 2 broiler chicks 2 months old (and the size of full grown chickens lol) i want to keep them happy and healthy for their life.
I keep them seperate from everyone in their own coop for 2 so they can eat a small amount only at night they free range during the day. The bugs are not as plenty now that the cold weather has come so they move around and scavenge more. They can still fly up on everything about 3-4feet (which i read usually they are too heavy to fly) they can still run pretty fast. (My millie Fleur doesn't like anyone within 6 to 100 feet of her lol)
If I can keep them healthy and active do they have a good chance of living longer?
They are hens so how many eggs can I expect a year from them?
If they happened to breed to my RIR or BO rooster would their chicks live longer or still have their eating tendencies?
