This is our 5th year raising Cornish Crosses and frankly, I'm ready for a different breed. Each year the genetics get worse and worse. Stunted wings and toes, Spraddle leg, sparse feathers (which may be good for plucking, but they stay under heat longer) and other genetic issues make for higher percentages of loss and increased care time.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a tasty breed to raise for meat? I'm interested in meat only, fairly fast growing. We have a flock of layers and dual purpose already.
