I placed a small order from Ideal Poultry and they included (what appears to me) RIR roos in my box! 16 of them to be exact!!! They are all healthy & thriving right now. I am planning/hoping to raise these guys up as my first go at meat birds. Anyone have any experience with this particular breed for meat? I have heard that RIR roos can be aggressive so I don't want to wait until it comes down to that to process them. I am a complete newbie at the idea of meat birds so please feel free to give advice freely. We would be planning to let them forage and have free-feeding as well. I have heard it is best to feed only grain the last couple of weeks... Any truth to this?
Thanks in advance!
