Hey there;
I am new to this chicken farming thing and would appreciate some help.
I am doing a project on homestead chicken farming. I would like some help figuring out the following:
1) which breed is good for egg AND meat? I am thinking Red Stars (Sex Link). Good choice?
2) how many chickens, and what cock to hen ratio, will I need if I intend to support a family of four PLUS have a surplus of eggs/meat to sell?
Thank you for you help
