Raising meat chickens is an increasingly popular practice among homesteaders seeking greater food independence, control over production inputs, and fresher, more flavorful protein. This field trial compared the Jumbo Cornish Cross, a fast-growing, high-efficiency commercial broiler, with the Red Ranger, a slower, more active, and pasture-adapted type. Both were raised on Crystal Creek® Broiler Feed to evaluate growth rate, feed conversion, carcass yield, health outcomes, and cost efficiency under typical homestead conditions.

The transition period—defined as approximately three weeks before calving through three weeks after—represents the most critical phase in a cow’s lactation. While it accounts for less than 10% of the lactation cycle, it sets the stage for cow health, fertility, and lactation performance. Transition period management and nutrition should be invested in to reap returns for the next 300 days of lactation. Failure to focus on this critical time may result in lost milk, increased disease events and premature culling. Managing calcium metabolism is key to a sound transition cow program.
