I know many people on here make a custom ration, and I also tried to myself- but found I wasn't happy with it. I worked with my feed guy to forumulate a ration that I was fairly happy with, but come to find out it was nearly identical to the custom ration that I could buy- but was more expensive.What do you feed your meat birds do you use a special mix?
20 percent to my breeders starting one month before I'm ready to begin hatching.What percentage of protein do you feed at different ages?
I have been reading this thread... I am very new to all of this... So bare with me.. I cant seem to get any standard white cornish around here. But i am planning on breeding my own line of meat birds for my family.. Now i was wondering, how do i breed to get the dominant white . Or start to breed for the whites with out having any whites, I have barred rocks, dark cornish, ect.I have been told by some well respected Cornish men and judges alike that a few ( 2-4 ) small barely visable Black ticking along the neck hackles and partialy along the back, is an indication of the true silver Gene in Cornish whites. This silver gene to me anyway will always insure that I will have dominant white throughout my breedings. I want white in my program so dark pin feathers will never be an issue as it can detract from it's appealing look at the table.
