I found this article about how the Cornish chicken came about, but it didn't say anything about the white laced red Cornish and the white laced red Cornish is not listed as a meat bird in Mcmurrays catalog. https://blog.mcmurrayhatchery.com/2011/04/29/dark-cornish/Gotta read through the posts still but just curious, hatcheries seem to have dark or white laced red only. When it comes to genetics what would you get crossing the two? Since alot of us gotta play with hatchery stock.
Thanks!
I found another article about the white laced red Cornish, apparently it was created by a Japanese Shamo and dark Cornish cross. https://web.extension.illinois.edu/eggs/res10-breedhistory.html
It would be better to go with the dark Cornish and cross it with a white Plymouth Rock or white Breese if you are trying to turn their feathers white.
