This spring I started a flock of Ameraucanas by buying hatching eggs from a few different breeders, some local. I put my extra boys in freezer camp today, and the final dressed weight was just under 3 lbs on all of them. I knew I was culling some of them because they lacked substance, but I was disappointed by the size of the smaller ones. These were 20 week old black and black/lav split roos. The bodies were all very slender, my husband said they looked more like rabbits than chickens after I skinned them. I know they will never match a cornish x, but what do those of you who dress out extra roos expect them to weigh at 20 weeks? Do they always look so narrow? I do free range my flock, but I keep feed out free choice also. My current game plan is to focus on breeding for more size and substance for next year (obviously). Thanks everyone.
