ok - my goal had been to get broilers in early july and send them to camp at end of august - I know they wouldn't be big but hoped they'd be big enough
as I made more inquiries I have been offered some broilers (red) now
I know theory about chicks and have brooded some for a couple of weeks and transported many all kinds of odd directions over the years but I don't know squat about meat chicks in a practical sense
how long will they need to be in a brooder?
when would they go outside in a traditional setting?
what would happen if they had a 8x8 foot run in the basement with a day bulb for a few weeks?
how many could I keep in a 8x8 foot run if any ?
help me figure out what I should do ... please and thank you
