cornish vs freedoms

[Sweetwater Hunting]

Its hot here in ms...soo this may not be accurate.

Bought. 30 cornish and 75 rangers

Lost 10 cornish about the first 2 weeks
1 ranger

I slowed down the eating rates of the cornish.. helped

I have all 74 rangers in my tractor and just started free ranging the cornish.

There about 2 weeks apart.

All seem happy....

GREAT! keep us updated. Have you raised either before?

How did you slow down the eating rates? I will be watching to see how your freedom rangers do. We have always done Cornish X but we're thinking of trying the rangers.

I started feeding chops at 2 weeks of age and also cut all lights off during nite. Now there on a free range and corn diet there running around everywhere interested to see what they will do in about 2 weeks
