Yeah been a wing shortage more Canadaโs are buying them and cooking at home. Chicken live price has been rising because of feed cost and now processors been pushing back hard on size of the bird. My target is 2.1 to 2.4 kgโs. Give them a 2.45 and you never hear end of it ๐. We use to have an incentive for size of 4 cents a kg for proper size. Now they just bulley yeah into giving them proper size. I think they forget it is a live product and breeder age of chicks very greatly for us too, which affects size. But no point trying to slow them down if they are growing to fast, because that costs money and time and no incentive now. Fun times.
Time for a new contract since my current company is a huge headache for me ๐.
