Anyone has data on growth rates of Brahma chicks. My chicks turned 7 weeks today and between the 4 of them they have started eating about 1.5 lbs (24 oz of feed every day) that's 6 oz per chick. I weighed them today and they gained 2.5 oz on avg. So basically 2.5 oz of weight gain for 42 oz feed consumption in a week per chick. The wastage is minimal and I believe its not being eaten by any sparrows etc (since I have a 1/2 inch hardware cloth encircling the coop and run)
Any ideas?
