I generally don’t prefer dual purpose breeds. Large, slow growing bird that lays a lot of eggs spells huge feed bill. Better to have good meet birds for meat and good layers for eggs.

If you want to talk economics, you are better off buying meat and eggs at the store.

Well, unless you want organic, free-range or are time rich and money poor.

True. But, if I want to raise my own meat and eggs, I still have a choice about how expensively I do it. It’s kind of like someone spending the night in their RV at a rest area instead of a fancy full hookup with all the trimmings. If they can afford a thirty thousand dollar RV you’d think they could afford to pay for parking and leave the free spaces for poor people. But hey, it’s a “free country.”

Barred Rock chickens. I don't know, just don't like their pattern...... makes me dizzy looking at it.

Feathered feet don't belong on chickens.

Noooo! Ok, you are probably right, but I love my feather footed, fluffy butted cochins haha!
