All of our birds are weighed and in the freezer except for the one we ate tonight. It was my 8lb'er and he fed 6 adults and 3 kids with leftovers for sandwiches tomorrow. OMGosh, this was the best chicken I have ever had! YUMMY!!!
We averaged 6lbs per bird at 8 weeks.
Started with 20 (1 butchered at 4 weeks due to leg issues and one thrown out due to Ascites) so had a total of 18 birds.
400lbs of feed but this also fed 3 turks.
We figured it cost us about $1.30 per pound of bird.
I was very impressed with my Cornish X!!
40 new little meaties should be here on Monday.
