Cornish hens?

My friend got some chicks from RK and they were in a mixed pen. She was wondering if her whites are Cornish hens.

If not.. well, then they are quite husky birds.

Yep, you are right.

How many weeks old? Are they Cornish X or just a Cornish as they are very different than a Cornish large fowl.

They were just starting to feather out when she got them and that was a couple months ago. We don't know if they are Cornish or Cornish X.

They are not pure Cornish but could easily be Cornish cross meat birds. Those will have really wide breasts and grow very fast.
