We butchered some roosters we had and they had basically zero fat. Fully free range, so maybe that's the reason, but they were cochin / olive egger mix.
We were thinking maybe we should introduce a meat bird rooster with the layers since we don't want to have a completely separate flock of just meat birds.
Has anyone done this and what were the results with the meat? The chicks raised up from them will be exclusively meat birds for us.
Would it just be best to have a meat bird flock?
