Colin works out of NCAT's Southwest Regional Office in San Antonio, Texas. Cameron and Colin discuss Cameron's experiences and what he's learned that has allowed him to create a sustainable and efficient system that produces healthy chickens and a quality meat product at a large scale. Cameron gives the listener an idea of a chicken's life on his farm from the day it arrives to the day it ends up on the plate.
