How to make my own meat birds?

[Lovethembuffs]

True White Cornish are rare. I am not aware of any major hatcheries in the US that sell them.

I'd call your county extension office and chat with them. They should have all kinds of contacts plus they often work with county fairs that might have a chicken show.

I could not find a major US hatchery that sells Cornish, let alone White Cornish. Hopefully someone else knows of one. Cornish Cross are easy, true Cornish not so much.

The American Poultry Association recognizes White Cornish as a breed and approved color but I could not find a Cornish Club on their website. I don't know how helpful they would be but you might try contacting the APA and ask if they could point you to a possible contact.

I can't dome up with anything else. Good luck!

Thanks for the info. Yes I have been researching hatcheries across the US and I understand it is a very difficult breed to find. I have found a private breeder in Texas but was hoping to find a private breeder in the PNW. My search and research continues.
