Oh man! I would think they would be full grown by 20 weeks!

I did a bunch of extra roos (various breeds) at about 5months. They mostly dressed out 2-3 lbs. The buff orps and orp/marans were the biggest by far. The remainder were mostly Ameraucanas and EEs.

Are you sure it wasn't a banty then? My RIR, EE, cochin culls at 12 weeks were dressed at about 2-3 lbs.


Don't worry, he lives on. Just thought it was funny.
