Are cornish hens hardy in the winter? Thats the only reason I want to know what they are. I did a quick google search and it looks like cornish hens are mostly bred for meat. Are they good backyard chickens? So far, they are sweet and good with the kids!
I am a first time chicken owner. They are so sweet. The kids love them. We have been getting 4-5 eggs a day since last month.
I'll Google dark cornish. Thanks!
I got them from my local feed store. They were overstock, so they weren't sure what they were. They made a guess from what they looked like and said Americana or easter egger.
