(Baby chicks up close)
This year, we bought the regular Cornish breed of meat bird instead of the Jumbo Cornish, which grow so quickly that they weigh an average of 7 - 8 pounds at processing. These should average around 7 lbs., tops.
They arrived by mail - and no doa's this time:)
All happy under their hot lamps, though I'm a bit worried about the possums we've seen killed in the road. Always, some new threat to worry about!
