Note that I make a distinction between the TAB character (which is a byte which can occur in a disk file) and the TAB key (which is that plastic bump on your keyboard, which when hit causes your computer to do something.). As to point #1: As to point #2, the tab character: there is a lot of history here.
This is my second year raising meat chickens. The first year I ordered 25 day old heavy breed cockrels. Raised them for 24 weeks then butchered them. They were different breeds and it was a little hard to kill them. They tasted okay but not good enough to do it again. The next time I ordered 25 Cornish Cross chicks.he first year I ordered 25 day old heavy breed cockrels. Raised them for 24 weeks then butchered them.

Best Answer: Chickens reared for the meat industry are slaughtered at 6 weeks old and are fully grown as we consider a chicken to be because they are fed a high protein diet with grown promotors.ome larger breeds such as Jersey Giants and Brahmas take a lot longer to reach maturity, 12 months or more apparantly for Brahama cockerels, I just bought one so I've been researching them. http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n283/...
