Hello everyone :). My name is Trish . I raised 5 cornishcross . 4 ended up being roosters and 1 was a hen. She laid her first eggs that came in shellless. So I gave her oyster shells . Then she laid 1 big egg and passed away. So I got these new birds. I have no clue if they are femal or males. I own 2 road island reds and 2 isa browns and 1 jersey giant . I learned about this place when I had my cornishcross and it helped me alot with getting her to lay 1 egg b4 she passed away. I am sorta new to raising chickens. I use to have them when I was a little girl. I enjoy holding my chickens and treating them like family. I like to let my chickens run in our back yard and eat the grass. These. We chickens are way smaller about 3 mo ths old. Im hopeing i can keep them alive and healthy as much as possible.

Hello, Trish, and welcome to BYC! :frow Glad you joined.
Cornish crosses do not live long. They are intended to be processed at 8 or 9 weeks old. They grow freakishly fast and that is why your layers are so much smaller. They grow at a normal rate.
