Feeding X's the correct amount

[max13077]

It's a while before I'm getting some more meaties but I can't help planning and getting ready.

I was told by Mcmurray hatchery that cornish X's shouldn't have free choice. They should be feed by a formula(that they failed to share with me) based on their age etc. Has anybody ever heard of this and if so how do I figure it?

I feed free choice for the first two weeks. For the remaining four weeks I feed them 12 hours on, 12 hours off.

I too did the 12 on 12 off method and it worked out very well.

I did 12/12 as well. I didn't start it until they were 4 weeks, next time I will start when they are at 2 weeks.
