[mrs_ed]

25 cornish arriving week of feb 22, local stock shop says they can order me turkey grower, otherwise they dont carry meat bird food. will this food work or is protein too high? anyone used this feed for cornish x?

What is the percentage of protein? I start mine on a broiler, turkey, gamebird starter at 25% protein. If it's too high, you can always mix it to get the % down..

Anything between 20 and 24% is okay. If I am at TSC I get the 24% and if I am local I get the Purina Flock Raiser that is 20%. Mine are 4 weeks old now (I have 19) and over 2 pounds each. Good luck!
