"Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

If I was to get a lamb to raise for meat, what do I need to know?  Is there a particular breed that would work better?  Are there any special housing issues or conerns I need to be aware of?  At what age would I process?  Yes, I know I can do my "homework", but trying to decide if it's an avenue I can even go down right now.
Thanks,
Laurie

Have you tried lamb? I like it Ron doesn't unless it's mixed with other meat for meatloaf or made into sausage . Pam
 
Ok. I'm making myself all stressed out that my almost 9 month old Amercaunas haven't laid. We are in day two of confinement and still no egg. Here are pics of their vents.
This first one is SnowWhite. It is possible she is a bit older than Lizzie. I know she will be 9 months old this month. When she is relaxed her vent is not a round hole, it is a side to side slit.


This is Lizzy's vent. She could be slightly younger but supposed to be from the same hatch. It's a little blurry and I can re-take if necessary. There is yellow stuff, sort of cheesy like, around her vent. She had scratch today if that matters as a treat.


So, experts tell me: has she started laying? I freaked when I read that some hens never lay, but both of them sterile???
