Cornish Cross Broilers single-handedly changed American eating habits by making broiler production efficient and producing nearly a 6 lb. carcass in 6 weeks. Before Cornish Cross Broilers were developed, a chicken dinner was a rare treat reserved for special occasions. Pre-Cornish Cross era chickens grew slowly while eating plenty of feed. Their meat was tasty but sparse. Cornish Cross Broilers require special feeding and care but grow astonishingly fast. These meat birds are the best choice for a person who wants to quickly produce delicious meat and has no plan to save hens for egg production. Today it's often the most inexpensive meat the grocery store sells. Suggested feeding schedule attachment under More Info below.

Q: Is it safe to ship birds in the winter? We are in Texas and would like to start some chicks in January.
4 years ago- A: We do our best to ship our birds safely all year long. In the winter we use thicker cardboard winter boxes without holes to help keep more body heat in for the journey to their new homes. We also use insulating foam rings around the chicks to keep them close and warm and a sheet of insulating foam under the nest pad to keep heat from escaping through the bottom of the box. With all of these measures in place we do keep a great shipping rate of 98% success. If you do have issues with a delivery we offer 48 hour live guarantee for all shipped birds to cover any shipping conditions that might be unfavorable. We will do our best to get your chicks to you safe and sound!4 years agoHelpful?

4 years ago- A: Check starting in February but usually a couple weeks ahead is good enough to get an order placed and shipped. If you want a specific ship date, placing the order early and calling the hatchery to delay is the best option.4 years agoHelpful?
Q: Hi there, the description mentions a feed schedule that would be attached in the 'more info' section, but I'm not seeing it. May I get a copy of the feed schedule for this breed, please? Thank you! Jessica
5 years ago- A: This is from Welp: Start your Cornish Rock broiler chicks just as you start any baby chick. Start them on a 20-22% Chick and/or Broiler Starter. Keep them on that ration for the first 4.5 to 5 weeks. At that age, switch them to an 18% Chick Grower. Please make sure you restrict the feed as we outline below! Provide 3 inches of feeder space and 1 inch per chick of watering space. You will "full feed" your broiler chicks around the clock for the first 5 days of age. At 7:00 p.m. of the 5th day, make sure your broiler chicks are completely out of feed. That means there is positively no feed from 7:00 p.m. of the 5th day of age until 7:00 a.m. the following morning. You want them out of feed for 12 consecutive hours. Water, yes, but no feed for 12 hours. Continue this "minor feed restriction" program, removing the feed every night, until time of slaughter. Failure to follow this feeding program may result in heart attacks. Sudden Death Syndrome or "flip" as it is sometimes called can result because of the very rapid growth of your Welp Broiler Chicks. Following the above restriction outline, religiously, every night commencing the 5th night of their 5th day of age, will reduce the "flip" thing substantially. Good luck with your birds.5 years agoHelpful?
