These birds are 9 weeks old (they will be 10 weeks on Thursday) and I originally believed they were cornish x meat birds. However now they seem too small to be this breed. They are kinda big but I'm trying to decide if they will live long lives or if I should butcher them. I have no experience with this breed but I thought they would be bigger than this. I'm thinking that 1 is a roo and 1 is a hen. I don't really want to butcher them but if they are indeed Cornish then I know that I have to. They get plenty of food and forage but just seem so small. Maybe this is the right size and I'm just an idiot :p but I compared them to my friend's whose were younger than mine and hers were HUGE! Thanks for any ideas!:D

They are the white ones. The brown ones are my pullets.

They aren't even as big as my year old GLW gals.

I just answered you on a duplicate thread, but as I asked there, How much do they weigh? At 9 weeks if they are under 6 lbs., they are White Rocks and not Cornish cross.
