Googled a bunch and couldn't find the 'Pioneer' moniker.
Course we never really knew their genetics, all proprietary you know.
Their Red Ranger Broiler could be the same thing, just a new name.

Oops. Sorry, didn't mean to be spreading misinformation.Pioneer is a 'brand' (marketing) name of a hybrid meat bird that one of the hatcheries produces(produced?).
Can't seem to find one online, so they may be 'obsolete'.
A slower growing and supposedly better foraging bird than the ubiquitous Cornish cross that so many dub a Frankenstein bird.
I've seen some stuff in the meaties forum in the past.Nope, Pioneer not like Red Ranger at all, near as I can tell. The Pioneer definitely based on some type of Barred bird, all the males were golden barred. Those males were massive and very tall. The females were varying shades of buff to light red, with a few white or black spatters here and there, often black feathers in wings/tail.
Any readers held back red rangers for breeders?
