Right!  When I was a wee buchail (tyke) too far back, '43 or so,  my dad and my uncle got 50 unseeded chicks to aid the war effort - turned out to be 49 roosters and 1 hen!  Luck of the Irish!   There was a sudden trip to the zoo fur us kids!   Later got more lots hens!  And 5 Bataam chicks for a dime!  Those were mine!  Tough lill Devils

We keep chickens, they're great fun and really not that much work if you've got a decent run for them. Be warned when it gets close to the time for them to start laying (which may not be until next spring) it'll be like waiting for your wife to give birth...

upstatenybowyer:
How old should the broilers be when it's time for  -C-?

I've heard if you let um' get much older than 8 weeks they get to fat to support their own weight.
