Same goal here too. We are going to separate our meat chickens from our layers so that we can fatten them up a bit more. We can't do it when they're all together because my layers don't need to fatten up.I have the same goal, at least as far as cockerels that dress out at 4+ lbs by 16 weeks. Hoping my current NN over my hybrid broiler chicks will be prove to be a good start. It is very humbling, however, to see what I think is a pretty good sized chick next to the CX chicks. I don't necessary want to duplicate the CX type of growth rate, but man, is it a huge gap between the CX and what I am trying to do.
