Rhode island reds and Isa browns. I'm getting meat chickens (freedom rangers) and some more dual.purpose hens in about 4-6 weeks then plan to let a few hens go broody and raise their own chick's with a Jersey giant rooster so in the future I won't need to purchase meat birds
We should have a chicken space here. I’ve learned so much in the past year. They get their feed plus veggie, fruits, meat, tuna, salmon and mackerel. The meat is good for them.
They lose their marbles over blueberries.
How big is your Jersey?
I haven't purchased yet, but the roosters are supposed to reach 13 pounds. They are good dual purpose breed, so males are often raised for meat, however they take much longer to reach max weight. That's why I want him to protect the flock and start breeding my own cross breed chick's with my Rhode island and Isa brown hens.
