I have heard so many stories about cornish cross problems and I live in a very hot climate.
I am planning on crossiing a dark cornish standard 8/9 lbs with a white rock 8/9 lbs
(male can be cornish or white rock over the opposite female)
What can I expect? I know that if I buy broilers year after year (most of them are eaten or die before breeding age) the cost is high and we want to produce our own food and not have to both buy/feed and pay for processing.....
Its cheaper to eat what you grow!
Any advise on what if this will give me a good meat bird OR what other breeds can I cross a dark cornish and white rock with??? all advice is appreciated. Thanks
