These Cornish Cross Broiler Chickens are the same type of chicken that the commercial poultry industry uses for sale at grocery stores. These meat chickens are very large, with all white feathers and red combs. They have strong looking, thick, yellow legs and feet. They are very fast growing, probably the fastest growing of all chickens.

 

Cornish Cross Broilers grow so fast that it doesn’t leave room for many mistakes. Every aspect of their lives is condensed. Be sure that they have access to clean water constantly and that you watch and adjust the height and amount the waterers hold according to your birds’ growth. Feed is also very important. Make sure that every day counts positively toward their optimal growth and health. Use a high quality and dependable food, that is fresh and not at all moldy. Chick starter is appropriate for the first 5 weeks. Switch to broiler or grower feed from 5 weeks to butcher.

 

With meat bird chicks, often I don’t know the exact date they are going to arrive because my breeders’ hatch sometimes takes a few days to finish, then she has them sexed, and then they drive here, they are not mailed. When you order I will give the best day that I would plan to expect to pickup but know it maybe a day before or after. I will confirm with you the day before for pickup and we can setup a time as well.
