I was told, by our hatchery, that our red broilers would be ready to harvest a 9 weeks. I started their finishing food 2 days ago but they don't look like they will be big enough to harvest by the 10 week mark. I got on line and read that red broilers usually don't get harvested until they are 12 weeks old. What should I do? Should I put them back on grower food for a week or two or should I keep them on the finishing food till they are closer to 12 weeks? Is crumbled food better for them than pellets?
