Hello everyone. Just wanted to introduce myself as a new chicken owner. I have two barred rocks and two golden comets about 4-5 weeks in age. We're finishing up the coop right now and I can't wait to move them out of the house!

I've learned A LOT since bringing them home. This has been a fun journey so far and I'm really looking forward to the future with these spunky ladies!

Glad to meet you. First you need to learn chicken math. It's very similar to algebra. Lol

so bored...sitting here at work alone waiting for quittin time! so been reading up on meaties and think im hooked...already planning how to do this. from what i have read they, for lack of a better term, poop ALOT! would this be benficial if i were to use them as like a garden chicken. i plan on have 2 small gardens and rotating them with a grow out pen so the chickens will till and fertilize my soild between crops. would these types be able to do something like this? was origonally going to do this same concept with some bantams and have broodies/cultivators....but if cornish crosses can do the same job.....


BTW...cornish cross....what are they crossed with or is that just their name? like the iron cross in the southern hemisphere or something, but that actually is a cross....but anyway! yeah!

 

[CityCraft]

Proof!! Lol!

 

[Cockle-Dood]

your guys are about the same age as mine, im planning on getting some glamor shots this evening, would be awesome to compare our BR's

I really want some of my own meat! how long until you can process cornish crosses? 6-8 weeks?

Yup. 6-8. And, to Knobby, this hybrid would hate to be let out to free range. They would probably run to their crates just like this. That said, I bring the outside to them, and supplement their diet with lots of treats and grassy stuff. The problem with meaties is that they are so quick from the brooder to the freezer that there isn't a whole lot of time to let them out. And they look all sad and confined right now just because they are still in the brooder.
