Generic photo but I’ve got 32 Delawares for a sustainable meatbird flock.
I plan to keep 1 or 2 Roos and 10 hens for eggs to eat & incubate for more meat.
What are your tried and true methods to fatten your birds up?
Do I need to limit free range time?
Any additional tips are greatly appreciated!

I’m below a beginner, started with 40 birds and I have 10 still alive today, it’s been about 3 weeks
Layer pellets and table scraps worked for us getting eggs. I think you need more for good meat birds, though. Hoping to see some ideas.
Good luck!
