We did Freedom Rangers once. They dressed out darn near as good as the Cornish cross but did actually do some foraging and could walk normally. IIRC they took an extra month to finish Vs Cornish cross.

The last couple of years though we've been hatching our own from our motley collection of layers. I wound up with a couple of broody hens and I let them do the work. Takes five or six months to finish the yardbirds but I have no feed or labor in them other than closing the coop at night. Not as much meat but more flavor compared to all others.
