First Run of Cornish Cross Meat Birds and Super Excited!

[Molpet]

Molpet,i cut the end of one of my fingers off in a car window regulator,for all intents and purposes,a giant pair of scissors.Cut bone and all.They reattached it.I could NEVER use pruners....shudders...lol

OUCH!!! I can understand why I was thinking the same thing, even with an old pair of Kevlar gloves on.
Takes 2 hands to use the long handle game pruners, remember I am squeamish and don't want to look at their little faces, so I do not want to get close LOL
The pruners look like this but an older model

 

[JRNash]

That makes my finger hurt!!lol

It's flooding here AGAIN.We were not finished cleaning up more than 10 minutes when it started. Thank You Lord.

In most cases, I'd rather have too much water than not enough but I realize both situations can be very costly in so many ways.

Dave,sorry to hear that. Have you considered AI?

The Ixworth X Hubbards are eggs from a pal, so I could try again but he obviously has fertility problems !

As long as I get something from this Cornish hatch I will be happy.

Went outside and caught one of the saipan cx, 13 days old and it weighs 7.1oz Anyone care to hazzard a guess as to growth?

 

[JRNash]

I found a growth chart on freedom rangers and they match my birds weight

 

[JRNash]

If the other stuff I read was correct a cx should be at a pound at 14 days

Get a load of this!!! A triple yoker!! The most I've ever found are doubles.

 

[JRNash]

I've never seen a triple!!
