I know you get asked this alot but..(weight/age/maturity at slaughter)

It seems yours are pretty light if they're only 3-4 lbs at that age. My dual purp roos are around 3lbs today at 9weeks. I'm feeding 20% protein free choice, free ranging on high protein forage. Layer pellets won't put weight on quickly.

I'll get some broiler feed today and start them on it then. Reckon they will be up to butchering weight by September1?

If you free range them, why do you have to worry about the protein in their diet? Aren't they likely to get that from the worms and bugs they eat?

That's what I thought too. Lots of bugs and weeds and things around for them, but they still feel kind of bony to me.
