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.

Healthy Looking Birds

We have raised Cornish Crosses for roughly 15 years. The peeps we received from Reichs are some of the healthiest looking birds we've seen in a long time. Very happy so far with my birds.
