Hello everyone. I'm new to this site and chickens. My family lives in south AL and we have 58 Cornish X we are raising to butcher next week! We are learning a lot and feel good about knowing where our food comes from. God bless!!
So glad you could join our community! Good luck with all the butchering. I hear it is a bit daunting at first, but growing your own food is the best way to live. Good for you and good for the birds.
Enjoy this new adventure you are on and welcome to our flock!
