how much feed

[bugkiller]

this topic came up the other day when talking to a friend and I am sure thee are many variables but approximately how much feed will lets say 50 meat birds like the Cornish rock consume from hatch to process. even a close guess would be good. just curious.

 

[Life is Good!]

Our 25 CX ate 11 #50 bags of feed over their lifetime.

They eat a lot...I'm not even sure how much, because at first I was feeding all the chicks from the same bags...we have 9 cornish x, and 17 laying breeds, and 8 ducks...After the first bag, then everyone started getting separate food...but the CX went through 50lbs in 2 or 3 weeks...that's a lot of food...
