Ready to Order?

CHICKENS-

Hello everyone! It is time to order chicks for this year's whole chicken orders and I want to make sure I get enough for everyone. I have made the decision this year to stick with a pure-bred chicken instead of the meat hybrids who grow freakishly fast and have no other purpose. (Just a reminder: all chickens at DasiWay are pastured, given natural spring water, never caged, and never fed antibiotics or any other medicine.) Our birds will be ready about 5 months after they hatch and should be weigh from 6-9 lbs, depending on their gender, at butchering time. Considering the number I will need to accomodate everyone who wants them, I am planning to raise them in two different sets throughout the summer. The first set will be ready around September and the second around Thanksgiving. Speaking of butchering...Legally, in order to sell the chickens I need to have them butchered in a state-inspected facility. There is only one in the whole state of Utah and they are located north of Logan and only open for people like me at Thanksgiving. If you would like to have your birds butchered by this facility I will certainly have it done for you- However, if you don't have a preference, it is very easy for me to just do it here at the farm. Note: I have a published price of $100 for 6 birds, but I am lowering the price to $85. (approx. $2.00/lb.) If you want fewer than 6, please let me know.

 

TURKEYS-

I am limiting turkeys this year to one per family as it is my first year raising them and I don't know exactly what issues they present yet. The breed I will be raising should grow to be 25-40 lbs. That is a big turkey so if you don't plan on using it for the holidays this year, you might considering canning the meat for use throughout the year OR we can butcher yours with the September batch when it will be slightly smaller. Price: $1.30/lb butchered.

 

BEEF-

Also, don't forget about beef this year. I need to know how many calves to order very soon. Generally, our calves butcher at 900-1100 lbs. live weight or you can order the variety package of meat. Note: I have a published price of $175 for the 20 lb variety, but I am lowering the price to $150. The price of a quarter beef has also been changed to $7.50/lb.
