If one just happened to be selling a meat bird to an acquaintance, how much would they charge per bird?
We'll be raising "label rouge" free range meat birds that take 12 weeks to reach butcher weight. Not as fast as a cornishX. I have no idea what the feed cost might be. Chicks are between $1.50 and $2.00 depending on how many we get at any one time. The local health food store charges...get this...$15.00 for a free range organic bird. Ours would not be fed organic feed, nor are we certified organic. Guesses?
thanks, duck
