I was thinking 50-300 but no sure yet exactly how many. Depends on how many cages I get built this winter. What weight does your birds average?

...........................and believe nothing that you hear, and only half of what you see. Looks can be deceiving. Also remember that you are getting the eggs not the parents... Read the fine print if there are any. Buyer Beware!!!

I just figured if he thought they were that big I would get some nice 16 ounce birds which I would be happy with. These little Northerns I have are good but small. I would like to have to only fix 2 birds instead of 4-6
