We raise some turkeys, have 20 barred rock laying hens, and have about 50 white meat birds. The meat birds don't move far from their feed, but the barred hens travel around and are great svavenger feeding birds. My problem is the white meat birds are so delicious, but I would like to have a few different meat breeds that are better and running around the yard and scavenging, but are still great tasting. Any suggestions? Rhode Island Reds maybe? Will other breeds play nice with my barred hens and white meat birds? Thanks for any help!!!
