Dual purpose birds

Hey yall. My husband and I originally planned to breed our own dual purpose birds. But those plans changed and we have been raising and selling Cornish crosses for the last two years. our customers love the meat and so do we! We have a laying flock as well, which includes a barred rock rooster, and four barred rock hens, as well as some other breeds. We keep circling back to the reasons why we originally wanted to raise dual purpose birds instead of commercial meat birds. we could easily buy a breeding pair of freedom rangers or incubate our barred rock eggs to sell as meat.

My question is, will our customers notice a difference in the flavor or texture of the meat?

I am considering offered both, explaining the difference, and allowing the customers to make an informed decision about which chicken they buy. But I worry that I may overwhelm people with information. You don’t get a lecture about sustainable and ethical agriculture when you go to a grocery store 😂
