I just recouped today. Put 4 NH hens and 1 CX hen in with him.
About 20 minutes later i watched my 2 year old CX rooster mount my 2 year old CX hen. Im pretty geeked.
Some post masters run a terrible show. Glad the old dude in Millington finally retired a few yrs ago. Now the workers are so much cooler.
Package with bubble wrap and hope for the best.
Im still thinking about going NPIP... thinking
I dont think all CX are terminal. I have 2 CX hens and 1 CX rooster that are 2 years old.
I have NHxCX eggs in my incubator right now. I have a crazy breeding plan going on here myself.
Wish you the best and maybe someday we can do some trading.
NH is not a CX. They finish around 16 weeks but have way better meat than CX. There isnt as much meat but they are a self sustaining breed. CX chicks can cost over 5 bucks each after you include shipping. And covid taught us that nothing coming through the mail is completely reliable.
