I can't find "Slow Cornish" from Privett.

Please keep us posted as I live close to 8000 her SLV colorado. We want to do meat birds next. Which dbreed at this time do you recommend?This season I raised a dozen Slow Cornish Broilers from Privett Hatchery in New Mexico.
I'm at 10,000 feet here in Colorado and all 12 made it to the freezer after approx. 12 weeks...all at or above 4lbs dressed.
Next season I plan on trying the Cornish Roaster from McMurray as they claim the roaster is a slow grower...we'll see.
I really want to try the Cornish X Rock...just to see what happens, if (with effort) they can make it...but everything I've read points to failure.
I'll try to keep this post updated with results (I plan on running the birds in a very controlled setup in order to record results and narrow down the best breed for my altitude)
Good luck with your efforts and keep us posted
