Heirloom chickens sell for $40 each

If you have a hankering for heirloom, slow-growth chickens raised on pasture, you can buy them across the United States for $40 each, processed, frozen and delivered.

Cooks Venture's has bought 800 acres in Arkansas to raise the chickens and two plants in Oklahoma to process them.

The birds are three to four pounds each and also sell for $70 for two and $90 for six.

The company also plans to distribute to grocery stores and restaurants by summer.
