Backyard Poultry: Cost, Care, and Weather Protections
Parrish explains that restricting range and intensifying methods raise feed and labor costs per bird but may not hurt profits since low-cost egg and poultry production does not guarantee high net returns. He favors ventilated houses with wind protection, clean dropping boards, ample fresh water, and curtains for bad weather, ensuring birds are protected yet kept open to fronts in fair weather.
