What does St Run mean from a Chicken perspective?

Answer 1

; straight run : Chicks that are sold without being sexed first, i.e., male and female mixed together. In theory, a straight run of chicks will give you 50% of each gender, but it doesn't usually work out that way.

Answer 2

It means at the chicken farm they will send you x-number of chicks you ordered without trying to determine whether you are getting males or females. For most breeds it's very hard to tell anyway in very young chicks. If you get a straight run of 25 chicks, odds are you're getting about a dozen little hens and a dozen little roosters.

Answer 3

"St Run" is a shorthand term commonly used in the poultry industry to refer to chickens that are raised to be slaughtered for meat. This term helps differentiate between chickens raised for meat production and those raised specifically for egg-laying purposes.
