hi all
time to start asking the questions
i have a grass area about 25mX9m that is fenced off to about 6ft high, it also has a brick building in it 3mX3m. i am wanting to get some chucks firstly for meat and then maybe later more chucks for eggs.
i dont want to over do things and get too many too fast so i am looking for recommendations on what breed and how many to start with also is it better to buy chicks or eggs and an incubator.
how old would the birds be before they meet their maker, what sort of weight approx, what to feed them (i do want them to be free range).
so many more questions like do i need a smallholder permit or something along those lines, when the day comes am i allowed to do the deed (i think i am but was told recently that i am not allowed) ok i will leave it for now but i will be back.
