Description

One of the most remarkable meat birds we have ever seen. Some have weights of 8lbs in eight weeks. Special white Cornish males are mated with white rock females producing chicks with hybrid vigor and superb qualities of both parents. Expect broad breasts, big thighs, fast feathering, white plumage, and yellow skin. These Cornish have fantastic growth and remarkable feed efficiency.

FAQs

How many weeks should I raise them?

6 weeks for small fryers. 8 weeks is standard. No more than 10.

Do Cornish need extra care?

Yes, Cornish should have their feed rationed off and on to prevent overgrowth. They also produce more waste and need cleaned up after or moved more often. Water is consumed at a higher rate. Keeping them out of extreme heat or cold is a must. 

Are Cornish known to have heart and leg issues?

Yes, but this can be resolved by not overfeeding, exercising the birds, and giving them plenty of space.

What should I feed Cornish?

22% proven broiler starter for 3-4 weeks 19% finisher last weeks.

50 Cornish X

We received our chicks via USPS. We recommend informing your local post office in advance before delivery to confirm that the USPS will call you early the day of their arrival. We are grateful to say that all 50 chicks arrived safely. We provided water with recommended electrolytes immediately upon unpacking them into the brooders. We unfortunately had one die the following evening and were unsure of the circumstances. However we also understand that there is a risk (we typically estimate 10% breakage) of "failure to thrive" so we were not that surprised. Overall we were happy with Reich's Poultry at this point. We alos appreciated to speak with an actual human being when we called to inquire about our order. We will provide feedback if possible over the next few weeks as they progress towards FREEZER CAMP.
