I would love to know more about raising a flock for eggs and meat. Have been looking into it and would love to hear comments from people who are already doing this. The sooner the better, as we are now preparing for more chickens in the spring. Mainly, I want to know how many chickens are needed? How do you rotate your flock? What is the cost compared to the lbs. of meat in the freezer? When do you slaughter? Pretty much, I know nothing. We do have room to expand. Live in a rural area. So, the world is open for chickens. Thanks for your help!
