The label rouge is like Champagne, it is a trademark that can only be used if the bird originated from a specific region of France. All the rest are just fat and tasty NNs. Well legally speaking that is.
Even though they devolop more slowly the feed conversion rate for a NN is superior to any production bird while in either extreme heat or cold, like our climate here. I'm really tired of the soft and tastless birds that are bought today and I am thinking of ordering some poultry from them to pasture out. Next spring I will plant a mix of grasses, wheat, rye and millet and see how they do.
