Joel Salatin, author of Pastured Poultry Profits, raises Cornish Cross meat birds in portable chicken houses called chicken tractors. The broilers are slaughtered at 8 weeks, with an average carcass weight of 1.8 kg (4 lb.) with a live weight of 2.4 kg (5.3 lb.). The feeding schedule for broilers is quite flexible. Although some producers feed chicken grower from hatch to slaughter, most use a two-or three-stage feeding program, changing the feed as chicks mature.
