I like my hens, but never really liked those white cornish crosses when we were growing them, so it was easier for me(in the I love this creature living sense)The cornish crosses really do grow!! and they make the best tasting chicken you've ever eaten.<br /><br /> I actually even like the rooster we have now. Boy..could I post some rooster stories! You are wise not to have gotten any roosters.

My local friend Kristin is raising them and she's finding their growth pretty amazing too. I'm still just doing egg birds, and they're slow growers, comparatively.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing yours. It gives me ideas.
