[QUOTE="Bez+, post: 633891, member: 6797"] Buy some more. Keep them together. Tell daughter to forget showing until she knows what a chicken eats and how to raise them. Research!!! FFA will likely have all she needs. Have fun. Eat them at about 38 - 45 days and up. Anything over 4 months make into soup or stew - too stringy for much more in my opinion. Some breeds tend to to "flip" if over fed. Literally fall over on their backs and die - so be sure to mind the feed. Get a couple layers and eat the eggs. Let them wander the yard - the egg yolks will be every colour of the rainbow from eating what they are supposed to eat - bugs, seeds and gravel, Have fun and no tears when you kill them to eat, they die or are carried off by a predator. They truly are the bottom of the food chain. Let us know how it goes. Regards Bez+ [/QUOTE]
