I am indeed bringing the pastured chickens.

If anybody would like to purchase their own chickens, for their own
nefarious purposes, it isn't a problem for me to pick them up on the
12th when I pick up the chickens for are barbecue.  Let me know before
then and I'll grab some birds for you.

And if you haven't eaten one of these before, it's very clearly a
superior bird.  It eats a richer diet and that diet is reflected in the
quality of the meat.  Only caveat is that you really want to brine these
birds before cooking, because they do exercise more and it can make the
meat a bit tougher.  Although really, the birds are still pretty tender,
because they generally choose not to exercise their freedom to walk around.
