[CoopCrazy]

I am pricing Cornish X and they hava great prices plus shipping is only 9.50 .. I havent heard much about them so was wondering if anyone had any experiance with them ... Alos any clue wheer to get Broad Breasted Bronze Turkeys??? I am having issues

 

[Brunty_Farms]

For you.. I would either get them from Mt.Healthy or Meyers Hatchery. Both have good stock....


Look at this hatchery for broilers www.centralhatchery.com

They have the best price I have found, at least for 100 chick order. I'm still trying to determine why they are so much cheaper.

Ok another question .. Since I am only doing about 10-12 turkeys and they will be tractored should I get only Toms, only hens, or straight run???? The cornish I am not concerned about but wasnt sure about fighting with the turkeys...

Also I guess I'll have to find a few folks to go in woth me on the broilers .. I dont think I can handle a hundred

Thanks for the feedback folks..

Are the Mamouth Bronze Turkeys Poults the same as the BBB ?? They are the only Bronze I saw on the Mt Healthy Site.. Also are Jumbo Cornish X the Same as Cornish Rock Cross? i kkep seeing the same photo on both the "Jumbo" and the standard

For a small operation, the gender of the turkeys shouldn't matter. I know the commercial operations go with all hens because they don't fight each other and therefore make a prettier carcass.
Good luck!

We didn't try to figure it out, we ordered 100 last year and they grew out wonderfully. I think we lost 3 birds of 106.

I would recommend them.
