I raised some cx and kept a pullet for breeding. I read that after a week of all they can eat, start to feed all they could eat in 20 min 2x a day. Also free ranged them with layer chicks. They had to look for food and that kept them active.
The pullet I kept keeled over a few days shy of a year. Water belly. But other people have had better luck https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...d-live-out-a-normal-full-length-life.1235154/
