I made a monster!

[RinaRoo]

You planning to eat them when they grow up? May gawd have mercy on your soul!

Some of them, and some will be part of my layer flock, so I can reproduce meat birds next year.

That is one ginormous 7-week-old.

This guy is 7 weeks old and 2 pounds, 9 ounces! He's 50% Bresse, 25% Marans, 12.5% Legbar and 12.5% Twentse. I did a project pen and I'd say it worked! I will say though that my Marans are especially deep bodied stock compared to what's typical for them.

Aren't these breeds slow growing and not that big?

Bresse are pretty large. On average 6-8 lbs. Marans are fairly large too. CL not so much, and I don't know much about Twentse
