It's likely not going to happen, unfortunately.
What has his diet been? How old is he?

He’s been eating just some chicken scratch and has been free ranging, he was hatched in February.

Unfortunately, he needed proper feed if you wanted him large.
Chicken scratch isn't real feed and free ranging can be hit or miss. I'm so sorry.
You can try some gamebird feed but I'm not sure if will add much weight with the time frame.

Game bird is good but not exactly for adding weight (I have read). I wonder if they made like turkey grower? Beyond that, corn puts weight on birds, so does raw milk!

We had just switched to the scratch a week or 2 ago but before that we had him on a %30 grower but my mom wanted to switch to the scratch

Ok I have never heard that raw milk does that. Can the milk just be the whole milk from grocery stores?

I would think so! It has a high fat content so it is a weight gainer!
