My cornish x rocks are 5 weeks old today! Man, they sure do grow fast. We finished up their permanent pen yesterday. It's made out of an old fish house and an old dog kennel. It's better than I would've ever imagined. We are going to try to butcher them ourselves...we will see how that goes....
These posts are encouraging (I'm a week to a week and a half behind you) and if my birds look this nice I'll be delighted. Agreed on the butchering thing. Take your time. I plan to get everything ready Friday night and get up on Saturday and start processing them, taking my time. Biggest birds go first and I get done what I get done. Repeat until all birds have taken the bus to freezer camp.
Great pictures, how many have you guys started out with ? I will be following your post, very interested in the progression and the pitures of your finidhed birds!
