Breeding for size

Been on all crack corn for about a week. Difference between pullets with feed restriction and Roos without is drastic but haven't weighed them.
 
I have my first 3 australorp/orpington chicks. They are precious. 1 week old now and just as hyper as can be. 5 more weeks free feed of chick starter (non medicated) then grower until 12 weeks then 50/50 corn/grower.
