Cackle.
'Hellbender' highly recommended Cackle hatchery naked necks, he crosses them with dark cornish and caponizes cockerels.
I plan on keeping them pure but might cross some as a side project.
I would have liked to have bought from S&G poultry, they breed theirs for meat production and I've heard they grow pretty good, minimum order of a hundred though...

Thank you I may give them a try. I've also heard S&G is good. Probably from the same source as you.

I know, right?? I just love these Burds!

Yep, I did!

Me too. I was very thankful my horse didn't get stung, I know from experience he completely comes unwound if he does!

Quote:
That depends on the age of the birds.
If they are Cornish X or red rangers under 10 weeks, you can just use normal chicken recipes. If they're heritage birds that are older - especially if they have been free ranging - you can't cook them that fast. For a bird that has been using its muscles for a while, you need to cook it on low heat slowly.
For a bird like that, it is easiest to part it out and cook the legs/thighs/wings separately from the breast which will cook up quicker.
You can do the bird whole though. To do that, I preheat to about 375 and cook breast up for about 10 minutes. Then drop the heat to 220, turn the bird over breast down in some broth. Cook till the leg meat separates from the bone. A bird of that age will have its own flavor so salt, pepper and perhaps a bit of rosemary is sufficient.

Good for you. Sounds great.

Anyone wanting to see Glacier National Park needs to go now. The glaciers will be gone within 10 years.
But there is no such thing as global warming.

It isn't a problem travelling alone. You meet more people that way. You also don't have to wait for someone else's schedule.
My daughter doesn't wait for someone to go with her. She's 27 and has been to 12 European countries and 4 SE Asian countries, all travelling alone.

Fourteen week old rainbows from Hoover Hatchery March first.
