Finished processing the last of the Red Rangers today at 13 weeks all hens and weighed in at 5 1/2 pounds dressed after I took out about a pound of fat. Glad to have all the butchering done it has been an experience and have a freezer full of really tasty chickens and ducks. Good eats
Have you ever done other meat breeds? I've heard a few others discuss the pros and cons of different breeds, so I just keep collecting opinions in case I ever get to raise some. One person said that if she has a broody hen she can't break she buys a few meat chicks for her to raise. I thought that was really clever!
