Yes Quite MeatySounds like a good idea..
How about regular white cornish rooster over a cornish/rock hybrid?
Would that be meaty?
Yes, they have the structure to put up a large breast and large drumsticks but take long to do it that is why the need to be crossed with an early maturing fast growing breed.The problem with those Asian game breeds is that they develop their fleshing so slow that their meat is tough by the time they mature.
I believe the Cornish X already has the Genetics of that frame work in them from when Sir Walter Raleigh did his cross 450 years ago. Which is why I prefer Dorkings because their large breast comes from a different trait... a very long breast bone. Take the plumpness of the CX or even Dark Cornish and combine it with a Dorkings long deep keel. Thats my plan. If you get the chance to cross an Aseel or Shamo with a CX its highly likely you prove me wrong on this because I am guessing with very little experience. I started crossing meat birds to heritage birds just a year ago and I have not crossed a CX and I have never seen a Shamo outside of pictures or video. I saw an Aseel once but did not pay attention to it. I actually do not recall it being very large but who knows how old it was.Yes, they have the structure to put up a large breast and large drumsticks but take long to do it that is why the need to be crossed with an early maturing fast growing breed.
It's actually closer to 200 years, I must say that I just don't believe that such cross would produce the modern Cornish we have today, the Old English Games we have today are slow to mature and don't put much weight at all, this is a cross of Aseel and a American Type game which is rather popular cross in the Game cock side of the poultry industry now.I believe the Cornish X already has the Genetics of that frame work in them from when Sir Walter Raleigh did his cross 450 years ago.
Sadly I don't have access to DorkingsI prefer Dorkings because their large breast comes from a different trait.
Sadly I don't have access to Dorkings
Who knows you might end up making something the revolutionizes the meat bird industry.
