That's my system. I don't choose slaughter days based on age or how much the boys weigh or how much they've filled in. I pick the days based on how annoying they are!Being dual purpose birds, I figure you just pick them off as they become too loud or start getting fussy with the others.

I don't think beekeeping is all that expensive. I have maybe $500 in my hive, bees and equipment. I have FAR more than that in my chickens in coops, fencing, etc.We have a huge vacant lot across the street, plus the Fairgrounds next to us doesn't need all of that land right? I looked into bee-keeping before chickens even. I was scared away by all of the road-blocks and issues, not to mention money that needs to be put into modern bee-keeping.
Can you post a pic of the capon? My capon is growing FAST and getting pretty with his splashes of color.
Look for an egg soon....We are looking to add 3 beehives in the spring, we may build ourselves or buy. How much honey do your hives give you?
I have to stop looking on Craigslist for stuff bunny or chicken related. For Christmas I have 2 bators and a 2 brooder heater thingies. My bf is a bit exasperated with me atm, but realizes that it makes me happy. As long as I'm not unhappy, he's all for "whatever she thinks she's doing".
The size difference between the capons is size wise, but now that I really think on it, the "intact rooster" does an egg song and my white star roo Brazen mates him daily. Maybe I have an imposter rooster or??
