What did you do in the garden today?

32 degrees and we have thunder and a hailstorm pounding the windows. 1/2 inch hail...I swear.

With luck like that, is there a reason you don't just buy from a hatchery?

I have never seen white Cornish offer in a hatchery. The dark Cornish offered are a poor example of the breed.

The hatcheries that ship to Hawaii don't sell standard white Cornish; I only see skinny standard dark Cornish at McMurray and none at Freedom Ranger. However, they both sell Cornish x.

I raised 2 dark Cornish roosters from McMurray before but ended up culling them because their body type pulls more toward fighting chickens.
