So tell me about cornish vs cornish cross. I thought crosses had issues with the fact that they grow so fast. I've heard of them dropping dead before they get to butcher weight. So are heritage cornish better? Do they take a long time to mature?

Give me the dirty details. Someone asked me like I know. LOL

I think @Molpet and @Redhead Rae both have raised heritage cornish.

I have raised neither but my understanding is the crosses grow extremely fast and suffer broken bones, heart attacks and tend to die very young.
 
I would kill for this to be cheese.
Seriously, iv'e become one with the poop.
Literal assimilation. :p

I will test the carp out of it tomorrow to make sure I got it fixed up.
I filled and drained just twice then had my son run a load of his stuff. No leaks from that so :fl.

I think I am finally learning Rivers signals. When she is tuckered out she gets very naughty.

Heritage Cornish mature about the same as English orphignton ... have slightly slower than typical heritage growth.. but they are large breasted, wide stance. I have one dark cockerel...

CX are a secret mix of Cornish and rocks. Hybrids..... Ready to harvest in half/ third the time and have issues from the rapid growth. There are grandparent flocks and breeder flocks. The ones we buy are the terminal offspring and hatcheries do not use them for breeding.

So better for??
Cornish are better for a sustainable healthy flock that tastes like real chicken
CX are cost effective to get fast meat
