Yes but when living in Tyson and Georges country finding a local option trustworthy is the hard part but these chickens aren't exactly free range they're raised in a Chicken tractor 12'×12' to help with predator loss and to control where they go on pasture this breed of chicken is lazy and lethargic but it produces the most meat the fastest due to genetics and breed so it's the most cost worthy option for an 8 week grow time most other birds would be half the size in double the time so the outdoor Chicken tractor allows protection exercise sunlight bugs fresh grass we rotate 6 tractors with around 84 birds in each one moved across the pasture 2x per day
