Crossing the Road
This is true, this bird is what our young people have grown up eating, and now it is what they want to eat. There are lots of uses for old hens, some are very tasty. But, it takes some cooking know-how that younger people might not have. I think they make the best chicken enchiladas ever eaten.A lot of people are fan of the Cornish cross. It has a fast growth rate, good feed conversion, looks like your typical store-bought chicken and very accepted by people. (I mentioned the last point because some people might not be so open to eating an old stewing hen who is pretty tough and not plump and tender)
