What's pastured poultry?
The term "pastured poultry" is a common way to raise chickens! It includes putting a bunch of young meat chickens in floor-less, transportable pens during the growing season. These pens are moved every day by sliding them along the ground, providing fresh pasture to the birds. The chickens also receive regular grain feed to supplement their pastured diet. They are then butchered and sold like regular meatbirds.
Why pastured poultry?
You should raise pastured poultry for many reasons, including your health! Some studies show that free-ranged and pastured chickens are better for you than regular cage-grown birds. Here are a few other reasons!
- Can be run by one person
- Strong demand
- Low capital investment
- No need to invest a large amount
- Potential for extra income!!
- Provides sustainably produced meat
- Chicken manure is great for the soil
So what are you waiting for? It's a great opportunity!
