@lpatelski how is Bam Bam' s fertility holding up? Do you have a Bam Bam Jr. selected to carry on with the dark cornish, or will you introduce a new cock bird?

Fertility is good, it is hard to choose between the younger cockerels I have listed. There are differences in all. They are all getting along now. As the younger ones become more active I may be forced to choose. Right now they are a band of brothers.

I had a hatchery stock cockerel that was quite decent, but it would have taken two of him to make one Bam Bam.

Bam bam is awsome.

The white ones are the Barred Rock x Broiler hens, theres a few other chickens in there that hatched at same time and keeping them together for now. Their diet will change at 4 months old since the biggest roo already hit the 10 lbs. These hatched april 26th. All have the double breast

These are the Cornish Rock rooster x Dark Cornish hens. They dont grow as fast as the barred rock x cornish rock cross but they are pure lead when you pick them up.
