Glad I could help. I think this is very sustainable way of having meet. The only thing thought, you need to have more than 1 laying hen as they do not lay may eggs (only about a 100 a year).
This is interesting. Reading some comments I see you say you are going to show the whole progression next time you hatch some I just subbed and will be looking for that. maybe you did already I have not looked at any other videos yet but will be soon.
This video gives me hope. I had hens but they died and rooster for a year and a half but crossed him with other breeds. Now I want to try a ratio of 4 : 10 roosters to hens. A restricted diet with probiotics is what I will try.
I am from the Philippines and I want to try producing my own broiler chickens. Its very expensive buying chicks in the market. It would be great if you will help me by answering my question Ma'am.
Hi Tonia. They did great we butchered them yesterday (the babies not the parents, the parents are doing great still) . They were around 10 pounds each 🤯🤯🤯 I know I had them for more than 8 weeks. But I just had no time to butcher them earlier.
@@TheBearWayTX thank you. I would have loved to see them developed but totally appreciate it. So glad you made this video I’m gonna take your advice and try to do it also and just watch their feed intake.
Thank you for that another lady did this but I couldn't find a follow up and hers did fine to.

Yes, definitely try it. They just need to be able to eat like regular laying hens and they will be happy an healthy. Good luck
Thank you SO much!
Your welcome

How many eggs does your Cornish hen lays in a week?
It's about 1 to 2 eggs a week. They produce about 100 eggs a year
Do you know where I can get female Cornish cross where I get mine they only give males
Look up ideal poltury hatchery or McMurray hatchery. They will have females or you can get a mix
They say they get bigger from being a hybrid. Would love to see how it worked out.
Hey Don. I will be starting my new batch in next few months. I will record the whole process 😊
Chickens are healthier free-ranging.
Yes they are, mine have 26 acres to eat bugs 😊
Update On Their growth?

Your welcome 😊 The next time I hatch more I will make a video on their progress weekly.
Are they still around?
Hi Yes they are :) the momma and dad are more than a year old.
Hey im from phillipines
Welcome to our Bear fam :)
$6 a Cornish cross I. Hawaii told me to harvest or their legs will break..
If you let them forage and control their food intake they will be living a long good life.
How long they can live?
I am not sure how long they can live but as longest you keep the healthy, they should have a happy long life.
Hi am from India can you provide me chicks
Hi Suraj, I am not sure how would I do that. 🤨
I seen in your description you said delivered all over in the world that why I want
No It doesn't say that. I think you are mistaking something.
