could i use meat birds to produce more meat birds? How long would it take for a rocks to lay eggs?

Only DP breeds will successfully be used in raising more meat birds. Cornish x rocks and colored broilers can be done but it's not easy nor is it economical. All birds will start laying anywhere from 17-24 weeks regardless of breed.
