Rock and cornish chickens

[Johan vd Merwe]

I have bought 300 mixed rocks and cornish chickens
weight between 400g and 900g,they were under fed
Two weeks later and they do not pick up weight
They are on grower at the moment,but they do not really eat
like they should.What do you suggest i do.
Thank you

Welcome to Backyard chickens, sorry I can't think of anything else to offer. Usually meat birds eat a lot without any coaxing.

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

I moved this over to the meatbirds section in hopes someone can help you there.

Good luck with your birds!

Welcome to BYC. Try asking this question in the 'Meat Birds' forum.

Oops, edited to note that Two Crows has moved your thread there.

What do you mean by "mixed Rock and Cornish chickens"?

Are these a Rock/Cornish cross, a hatchery CornishX or a mixed flock of both Plymouth Rocks and Cornish?
