Broilers VS Layers VS Free range chickens: Whats better? Whats more profitable?

Poultry farming, especially chicken farming, can be broken into specific categories such as layers, broilers and free-range chickens or backyard chickens. So, which one is more profitable between Broilers VS Layers VS Free-range chickens and what's better between these three species of chicken?
Before looking at what's better or what's more profitable between broilers and layers and free-range or backyard chickens, you first need to understand their differences in factors such as growth rate, egg production, resistance to diseases, market demands, etc, so that you can make an informed decision.
You should know that both broiler chicken farming and layer chicken farming are both a risky type of farming. Broilers require so much care and are more involving than layers as every bird's death means less profit for the farmer. On the other hand, layers take longer to give you any profit, and, therefore, they are the riskiest in the poultry farming industry. Surprisingly, free range chickens are the least riskiest chicken farming project one can venture into. This is mainly because free-range chickens rarely fall sick, have a capacity to increase in numbers, require less human intervention for their upkeep and they possess the ability to look for their own feed since they feed on almost anything.
Layers and broilers are usually hybrid chickens that are bred for commercial purposes and some of the most common hybrid layer chickens are Hubbard, Shavers, Babcock, Isabrown and Hyline while popular broiler breeds include common Cornish Cross strains such as Cobb 500, Ross 308 and Ross 708. For free-range chickens there are also hundreds of breeds out there, but some of the most popular free-range breeds are Rhode Island Red, New Hampshire Red, Black Australorp, Plymouth Rock, Orpington and Leghorn chickens.
Many communal farmers and prospective poultry farmers do not realise the commercial value of their free-range chickens or backyard chickens. Families generally keep these birds merely for subsistence purposes, but you can make a lot of income with these type of chickens. In fact they can actually be more profitable than both broilers and layers. We will talk about it in great detail later in this tutorial.
