Me and a mate are going to try rearing some meat birds in his garden but feed them on growers pellets, grains and greens along with whatever they can find in his garden in the hope of producing some healthier/happier meat without all the crap they get in the big sheds. Anyone done this before? I got him half a dozen 4 week old birds yesterday but they seem a bit big and lazy already, should we have got them at day olds and not fed them the shite to begin with or will they come good with a bit of sun and exercise?
Cheers, gnipper
