best hen breeds for the table

I could be wrong but I don't think you can put hens in the same pen a geese.  I think the hens might get killed

I was going to get geese to keep with my hens and was advised not to - even though all mine free range and are not in an enclosure.

The hens live with the geese and all has been fine for the last six years. I'm not wanting dual purpose hens but ones just for the table - best-tasting meat, you know, with roast pots and bread sauce etc! 

Have some Guinea Fowl.  They taste just like we all want chicken to taste

When you add up the time and cost or getting a traditional breed to the table i think its better to go with something like a Sasso, altho all my table birds are trads.  Mine are Dorking , Sussex  and Cornish /India game and X's and mixes of them all.
Its hard to get them to put on flesh, they just seem to grow a bigger carcass.  I have never produced a chicken like I can buy at the butchers with a small carcass but loads of meat.
I find it works best for us to cull the trad cockerels at 18 weeks, skin and take the meat of the bones for stir fries and casseroles.  They dont have enough fat at that age to make good roasters.
