The best lineage, only certain genetics are allowed. Slow-growing birds that tend to be heartier than Commercial breeds are better suited to outdoor production. After 6 wks of age they have access to the outdoors from 9 AM until dusk. They grow longer than commercial birds, from 81 to 100 days and are air chilled. The flavor is rich, old fashioned, different from commerical chicken - sweet and strong but not gamy with thin, crisp skin. Truly an exceptional chicken experience.
