Creating Meat hybrids

So do most game hens - offspring mature fast? Could I use my big roo that grew faster than my bared rock birds (all my bird that look like him grew slightly faster and bigger). and breed him with a game hen?
Ted,
What do you mean game hen, Cornish game hen?? Or some other type of Game chicken? Can you post a picture of your big roo?

I see game hens for sale but never Cornish. I wonder what breeds grow fastest. My big Roo is a mix. He the product of a Easter Egger Roo that bread with isa Brown or Plymouth Rock Hen. I have not weighed him but feels heavy and he is looking good. I found all the bird that hatched out white with gray spots grew faster and are bigger than my Plymouth rock birds. Its a Barn yard mix that I am going to try to breed back together the hens and the Roo as I have 4 hens that match him. I have to take one (picture) All I know is they grew faster bigger than my reds and my rocks. I was looking to get green eggs birds; I got blue and green.
