The chick is 4 weeks old today. It was mixed into my CX order. I didn't ask for it so now I have to find it a home in the next 2 weeks because the CX have another engagement and I need the coop empty for the next batch. I would like to be able to tell folks what this bird is so I can give it...

I just processed my 51 CX cockerels last Friday. They were 61 days old. I fed them 20% Starter/grower throughout. The first 4 weeks, they had feed 24/7, the rest of the time it was 12 on/12 off. They consumed 1150 pounds of feed, exactly half of which, they ate in the last 16 days. They...
