It"s awesome how fast today's meat chickens put on weight. All they do is eat, drink, poop and get fat. "Free range" means nothing because they won't walk any farther than from the feed to the water.
There are different breeds for laying and for fryers. The male chicks of the laying breed don't have a good future.
