Just found 12 free stewing hens on craigslist!!! I went and picked them up they are two year old ISA Browns! They arent very big but I figured it was 12 additional "meat chickens" that I got for free!
Then I was thinking.....do two year old birds not lay eggs? I just got them and havent had them long enough to see if they will lay or not. My oldest birds are a year and a half and still lay eggs daily!!!!
I have them in a kennel with a top on it so they cant jump out so they are quarantined from my birds just in case and were trying to decide when were going to process. (all at once or a few at a time).
