Pounds of food per bird overall

[MOChickenz]

If I do Cornish crosses, how many pounds of food per bird should I plan on?

Id guess maybe 15 lbs

Carefully built commercial rations and rearing techniques will get you an aberage 5.25 lb bird in 42 days wwith a feed conversion ratio of 1.85 lbs of feed to each pound of live weight.

500 pounds for every 25 birds.
