Winter will be arriving soon. Probably will pen a miscellaneious group together as " meat birds". THe down side of hatching eggs as a start is the small numbers to work with.
My best producer is the CA Greys but they are smaller than my other LF girls so Magnus may be too big. But it would make a nice cross if it happens. I am surprised that your Konzas are little. Mine have been getting a 22% turkey/game bird starter so maybe that accounts for the difference. Can you tell how many pullets you have? I am going by size, by the fact that one of them hatched with a head spot and by leg and foot size. Mine hatched 7/2...two days early! so they are about 11 weeks old now. They are as wide as some of my adult pullets but still lack length and height.I looked at the California greys. SHould be an interesting cross. My biggest roooster is my half bred boy = half marans and half cornish cross. A monster sized boy. NOt sure any girls can withstand his attentions . . . . will see. He is in the buckeye pen but I still plan to move him out soon. Worried he might hurt one of the young girls that are 6 months old.
My Konzas are still so little . . . smaller than I expected. I stillworry that they did not get enough protein early on to make for a bigger chicken. My hopes is that their chicks will be good meat birds and those I will feed a higher % and see if they grow better on that.
