The dressed 8 week old Cornish cross is a little cheaper than the store, but 4 month old heritage breeds like Breese chickens cost more to raise than Cornish X. However, it has high end appeal, and we can't buy Breese chickens in the grocery store, so if I want to eat it, I have to raise them myself.What do you do with so much meat? Is all that for you? is it actually cheaper than just buying from the grocery store?
all of them have pea combs, so I am thinking the type of comb comes from the rooster in each separate pairing. Because I also see straight combs on the Breese Rooster/Cornish x crosses.
So if I breed them to a mix (pea plus straight comb) with pea comb, I should get more pea comb and less straight comb and the percentage goes up when mixed pea comb chicks from this is line bred to pea comb down the line, until they only reproduce pea comb chicken?Your Dark Cornish/Bresse chicks will have one gene for pea comb and one for not-pea, so if you breed them to a single comb bird (pure not-pea), they will produce some offspring with pea combs and some with single combs.
