It's the white cornish I would give almost anything to find.

Well I am finally having some good luck hatching this year, with the last few years of sporadic infertility problems solved I am starting to get some numbers on the ground to build on.
I will continue to hatch this year all year long as long as the egg's and space hold out LOL. Here are some of what I have hatching.

Little white Hulk's

Bore me some more.

I just love The Hulk! The WLR are kinda rare, aren't they? I like those, too!

Good WLR's are hard to find, what is mostly out there has alot of bleed through and the color is off with more brown as opposed to dbl laced chesnut. The LF Whites are the most difficult bird to get, and I mean really tough with only a small handfull of good breeders out there, and they can be very pricey, but a good cornish like the Hulk will win Best in show everytime. Judges will take a well bred Cornish to the top more often than other breeds if their in the top of their class.

No not really Kathy the egg's are only of Medium size and they lay in erratic spurts, and maybe only 100 per year at best.

I should have enough on the ground this year to be able to have good numbers of breeding stock available for birds next year. I will only be selling young adult stock though, I just want to make sure what is getting out there is of the best quality it can be. I suspect only the most avid show person or Pure Cornish breeders will be my customers as these birds won't be cheap enough for the average person who Just want's a few Cornish. I don't sell my Culls even though they are head over heals above hatchery stock and some breeders stock.

I agree about the culls. it is true for many breeders that their culls are a cut above. It always surprised me that Cornish are so rare in breed circles.
