What a cool thread! I am totally hooked! I sold my NN roo that was from a local hatchery around here and he was HUGE! He was a little rough on my EE ladies so he had to go, he was over a year old so I didn't want to eat him fearing that he would be tough. I like the idea of raising and incubating my own meat chickens. I love to incubate and this would just be awesome! Let me know if you get a good cross between the two breeds!
