I dispactched 3 buff orpington roos yesterday at 16 and a half weeks of age. I was going to try to wait longer, but they were being hard on my hens. (Who much prefer my dominant barred rock rooster). After processing and packaging they weighed between 2.7 and 3 pounds. Is this a normal weight at this age? They appeared healthy, and I have been feeding Purina start and grow since day old chicks. They have a coop/enclosed run but I was also letting them free range daily. I got them from Meyer hatchery. Thanks!
