What is your primary goal?
If cheap, better than grocery store and quick, Cornish Cross (CX).
If you do a pioneer/ranger or heritage from a hatchery, it will take longer. Meat will be firmer (do you like firmer?) and cost will be more than CX.
I'm doing another round of CX. Quick is goal. Deliciousness is desired.
Grocery store has become bland and mushy. Unfortunately, so has fast food birds. The attraction has waned.
Then Cornish Cross is the most logical and most economicI want quick and good. not to crazy expensive
