Raising Freedom Rangers for meat chickens. You won't be disappointed, here's why!

Awesome short filming, especially when the truck pulls away and the dog seems to be saying goodbye to the chickens he herded and protected around the property from the hawks, owls, and coyotes. He has an integral part and thoroughly enjoys his duties in raising chickens and turkeys as meat birds. So nice of you to reward him in the end with the leftovers from the preparers. Nothing goes to waste! Kudos!

Thank you for posting this. We are raising cornish cross now because wearein a rush for 2inter prepping. The genetics are just CRUEL. We find that a breed that can't live past 10 weeks to be against nature. There are not a lot of videos on the rangers except for the cost, so it's good to seesomeonepost about the geneticsand health. Again, thank you. You make our spring Tim choice easier

Wow that video was very refreshing! Thank you so much for showing us that!

I raised broilers in my backyard suburbanstead last year. I'm looking for a sustainable chicken that I can use and Freedom Rangers are under consideration. Thanks for sharing. Subscribed!

What kind of tree with berries?

on the farm culling is much kinder to the bird. transporting is stressful. Also, who decapitate birds as a means of culling? In-humane. kosher cull is preferred.

I find the freedom rangers taste better than the cornish cross. They are less rubbery of you let them go longer. I just wish we could breed them ourselves.

I love my Freedom Rangers! They are also excellent egg layers too! I bought the butchering kit on Amazon with the cone, knife, defeathering attachment for the drill but I just can't do it.. my friend handles it for me. I'm currently working with mine by X breeding them with Breese in one pen & Silkie in the other, just for my own experimentation and so far things are looking promising. Just a few weeks off we will see if the meat from these crosses turns out okay.

Doesn't look like the butcher shrink wrapped them very good... mine are completely shrink wrapped, no air at all!

Are the roosters aggressive

My father in law wants us to raise these. Highly sought after by Chinese people if raised a particular way

The dog told them your time has come to an end, the humans need to lick their fingers

I do not pluck, I rip skin off, then you can have feathers

I have raised Cornish cross for years with no problems but the freedom ranger spikes my interest

Já me escrevi muito bom

How much on average is charged to process per bird?

Hi everyone!

What tree is that with the berries?

such a grear video. I miss my mulberry tree!!!

Our fur kids get chicken treats when we bring ours home too! We also freeze all the feet, they love them! 😊👍❤️

I would rather wait a few extra weeks to bring a chick
To market size then
To deal with the problems
Of carnish rocks

Before the Cornish rock
Hybrids took over the broiler
Industry the delawere and new Hampshire were the
Favored breeds in the broiler industry
On a side note pure bred heritage
Cornish are awasome meat birds
But unfortunate rather slow growing

12-14 weeks?

What is the size difference in a ranger and a cornish cross? My family are big breast eaters
