My 16 week old organic pullets came today. Other barn comes tomorrow. This is my 8th flock. Each flock has done better than the last. Last flock peaked over 96%, averaged over 92%, practically zero floor eggs, negligible mortality. These lil ladies are about the calmest ones I’ve had so far.

Friend of ours has two breeder barns, lays eggs to be hatched for the broiler chicks we raise.
We have 3 500 ft broiler houses, 32000 chicks in each building, we raise the smaller rotisserie birds.
