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 but I compared them to my friend's whose were younger than mine and hers were HUGE! Thanks for any ideas!
They are the white ones. The brown ones are my pullets.
They aren't even as big as my year old GLW gals.
