Well, I did hatch a chick from a 15 lb. Cornish cross hen that was crossed to a Thai gamefowl rooster.... it’s only 10 days old. I have a broody hen raising it. Should be big, but not as big as a “bantam ostrich “!😆 here’s a picture of the Cornish cross chick, and the huge mom next to an Easter...

Hello. Here is my bantam ostrich. It’s a cross between a chicken and an emu. 😂😂 Ok, not really, but it is a mystery. The dad was red Pyle Malay and mom 1/2 Thai gamefowl 1/2 Rhode Island Red. Somehow it’s looking like a ganoi, or some kind of naked neck! Almost 3 months old, and still not...

Hello, I’m kinda randomly posting here, but I have a strange 3 months old chick. It’s 1/2 red Pyle Malay, and 1/4 Thai, and 1/4 Rhode Island Red. Somehow it looks like somekind of ganoi or naked neck. ( or bantam ostrich 😂)

Probably shamo, looks just like shamo hens/pullets I’ve had, could also be Thai.

Well, I had 1, 1/2 Cornish cross 1/2 Thai gamefowl chick hatch. She is with a broody Malay hen. The chick is now 10 days old. Looking pretty normal sized and healthy so far. Can’t wait to see how big it will get..

Super old thread. But a Wyandotte is close in appearance to a Brahma without feathered legs. I agree, I hate the feathered feet. Otherwise a beautiful breed. So much for the “standards”!

I wouldn’t get them for layers. This is the only Cornish cross I have had. I bought her for an experiment to cross to my large Asian gamefowl roosters. She is very friendly and healthy but I hear they can easily develop leg issues. Also you need a safe predator proof set up as it’s impossible...

I also have a 16 lb Cornish cross hen that lays very big eggs. Sometimes they are incredibly large. Sometimes double yokes.

Thanks. I haven’t posted till today, but have been reading posts off and on for several years. I have had chickens around 9 years I think. 😁 That is amazing! Thanks for the pictures!

I do have her on a diet kinda. She gets 3/4 of layer crumble in the morning and before dark I give her 1/2 a cup of more food. I believe 3/4 should be good for a regular big hen, but since she’s so heavy I give her the extra 1/2 cup before sunset. I do keep her separated from the flock but...

Hello! How long did you keep your Cornish cross as pets? I m wondering if she will live more than a year. At 16 lbs I don’t think her body will last. But she walks just fine and looks healthy. Very friendly hen. I hope someone has input on doing a cross with them. My Thai and Malay are bigger...

The first 3 were also huge, but not double yokes.

Hello. Anyone every hatched eggs from a Cornish cross? How did the chicks look??? I have a HUGE Cornish cross hen that started laying eggs 2 weeks ago. She is 16 lbs! After her first egg, I paired her up with my 8.5 lb Thai gamefowl. Her 3rd egg laid was fertile. I currently have 7 of her eggs...

hello. i bought a welsummers rooster. beautiful rooster. he has helped make several chicks. i paid i think $200 or $250 for him, as it was around 2 years ago. plus there was $50 shipping. so yeah, its a lot of money for a rooster. i live in seattle wa and didn't want to upset my neighbors...

Hello! I still have him! He is looking good n strong. He did get sick right after I got him. And I had to get antibiotics from a vet to save him. But after that he never got sick again. I figure he is close to three years old now.

dr. james decrowed roosters are the best way to go!!!!!!!!! i have had a decrowed welsummers rooster from him for a year. he is awesome. totally normal other than his very quiet crow. i have tried the no crow collar. the no crow collar is okay for a short term fix. NOT GOOD FOR A LONG TERM...

hello, i bought a rooster from quietrooster.com i am so happy i did! this vet in oklahoma does this surgery on the roosters voice box where his crow is very quiet. i bought a welsummers rooster from him 5 months ago. he is a perfectly normal rooster except he is very quiet when he crows. i...
