IT ONLY MEANS THAT HERITAGE BREEDS ARE ABLE TO CONVERT LOW-DENSITY FARM RATIOS, SCRATCH A PRODUCER CAN PRODUCE BY HIS OWN FIELDS, CAN ADAPT TO SOY-FREE, FISH-FREE, MEAT-FREE FEEDING ETC.does that conclusion mean:
Heritage birds need less food per egg
or
Heritage birds reach their peak on less food than hybrids - meaning that per pound of feed you get more eggs from hybrid.
HYBRID CHICKENS NEED HIGH OCTANE FEED AND WHEN GIVEN SCRATCH AND LOW-DENSITY RATIOS IN GENERAL, THEIR PRODUCTION WILL BE EXTREMELY LOW.
OF COURSE IN HIGH OCTANE RATIOS HYBRIDS EAT LESS AND PRODUCE MORE.
THE KEY IS THAT HYBRIDS ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR ALTERNATIVE ECOLOGICAL FEEDING AND FOR THE SMALL FARMER'S SUSTAINABILITY.
