Wyandottes would probably serve you well as a dual purpose bird if they were bred up to the SOP.@ Cedarknob So you restricted the diet of the Cornish and get the hens to breeding age and breed them with a dual purpose breed roo? Which has evolved into a sustainable dual purpose mix breed with a good amount of meat? It probably sounds like dumb questions, but my Wyandottes and Araucanas I got last year as my first chicken experience as an adult are supposed to be dual purpose.....I cannot imagine there would be much to eat on them. There is not much there. Might get a few bites and that would be it! I thought about getting a meaty heritage roo to go over my Wyandotte hens to bulk up my stock. But maybe I should go Cornish female. ?

I'll take my digital scale out to the pens tomorrow and weigh in my Wyandottes just to compare.
And "been there done that" spending time and money on hatchery stock. That's why I got into the Columbian Wyandottes and Cochins.
Next some good Wyandottes as they are the ******* child of the American Class today. Very few have them and they need help.
