cornish X?

Cackle hatchery surprise box. Many of the birds I think we have ID'd, but not all.

From what I understand Cackle does not put Cornish X in the surprise boxes.

Sooooo.......how many birds were in your box?

I get tempted to order it every year! Just not brave enough to take on 50+ at once.

Good to know! We have another surprise box coming from Cackle in June, along with some other birds(including my first ever geese!). The first box was a Christmas gift my mom got for my fiancee and I, the order in June is what we got for each other for Christmas. We did not plan on this many birds, lmao, but thankfully our 60 +/- acres can totally accomodate them.

This box we got 44 birds. 3 or 4 polish in 3 colors, 2(I think) ameracaunas(one with crossbeak sadly, so if a pullet egg laying only and if a cockrel freezer camp bound), 3 ducks, 2 turkeys, 1 black jersey giant, 1 white jersey giant(?), 1(?) spitzhauben(?), 1 or 2 buff orpingtons, 1 light brahma, a handful of the leghorn/white rocks, a few wellsummers/leghorns, some barred rocks, and some others. A probably gold laced seabright, a partridge cochin.. a good mix. I am quite happy.

My fiancee and I will probably do this every year or every other year, especially when we have kids.

Sounds like a fun box of bitty babies!

I'd say White Rocks or Red Sexlink cockerels.
