I had a small order from Ideal That came with 8-9 extras for warmth during transit, most likely males. This is an assumption but from what I have read a strong possibility. I am wondering what I need to do to begin the growing out process for the cockerels once they have been Id'd as such? This may be a few months down the chicken road, and I need to have as much info available to make the cross over to meatbird production a successful one. I have never raised meatbirds before, but I am not prepared to have 8-9 roos in my flock. I do not want the hassle of selling them either, so freezer camp is my option.
Do any of you members do this with your "packing peanuts"?
