Where does the 2 lbs for 7 meat birds come from. I haven't met anyone that knew before do you breed meaties in NZ? Please let me know about the information you have. I have been worried about them not laying if their feed was cut back too far. It is only with the Cornish that we have foot problems the Freedom Rangers are Free of problems. I was wondering if part of the foot problems could be, because they are breeding the Cornish X's here with such thin skin anymore.

All they call them is Le Poulet tri-color. It is J.M Hatchery's fancy way of saying ' the tri-color chicken' in french. http://www.jmhatchery.com/free-range-broiler/colored-range-chicks/prod_5.html
I think both Sugar and Honey are beautiful and we did keep Honey because of his wonderful markings.
I'm in Zeeland Michigan not new zeeland.Zeelan was the chick capital of the world years ago. The Zeeland Highschool are called the chix.
All hens need only .25 lbs of feed a day to produce eggs good.Most will eat much more.I do know that cornishx breeders are very limited fed. The cocks and hens are fed a different ration.You can view it on YouTube.
