Hello everyone. I’m not getting into it much, but basically a family member decided they wanted meat birds in store a few days ago, but I don’t believe they thought about how much work they would be. Now there’s 12 Cornish crosses in a brooder in our basement and the person who bought them checks on them twice a day and unfortunately they need more than that until they get a better setup. I’ve never ever wanted to do meat chickens but I didn’t make the decision. I’ve been caring for them in between and switching bedding etc. but I have some questions. What feed do they need to be the proper weight for when they are culled? (They were just put on regular chick feed…(not by me)). And when is it best to cull them? Is there anything they need differently in a brooder or coop than like egg layers?
