hey all. I’m looking to raise some meat birds. I have a huge variety of breeds - I love the wide range of colors and sizes. I was thinking about starting with several Cochin hens I have that are huge. Just not sure I’d like their meat. (I’ve heard they are really dark.)
I raised some Cornish crosses but never had such a nasty coop in all my years.
I’m content waiting up to a year for culling time so long as they meat is not dark and I don’t have to soak them to tender them up.
We raised white birds on the farm when I grew up but my parents have passed and I’m not sure what breed they were. Could’ve been white rocks?
What do y’all suggest?
