feed question

[JDN]

Do you plan on letting the Cornish mix with your egg layers? This would present a problem as the Cornish will just eat any feed left on the ground for them (meant for the layers). Mine are on a strict diet now where they are fed once a day.

Are you planning on butchering them? I ask because I don't see the need for strict diets if processing at 6 weeks.

I raised mine this year 30 of them on the Nutrena meat bird feed it’s 22% protein. I fed it from start to finish, the first two weeks they had feed 24/7 after that I fed them 12 hours on feed 12 hours off. They did excellent I lost 1 bird early on.
