This is the most remarkable meat producing bird we have ever seen. Special matings produce chicks with broad breasts, big thighs, white plumage, and yellow skin. The rapid growth of these chicks is fantastic and the feed efficiency remarkable. Whether you get these Cornish X Rock chicks for your own pleasure or to raise and sell, you can’t do better. If you want to raise capons, buy males and have them caponized at 2 or 3 weeks of age. Females have a fine smooth finish when dressed and reach beautiful roasting size. Buying straight run chicks gives you some of each sex so that you can take advantage of the strong points both ways. We think our Cornish X Rock chicks are among the finest meat birds in America. We should know. We fill our family freezers with them every year! Males will dress from 3 to 4 pounds in six to eight weeks and females will take about one and one-half weeks longer to reach the same size. Please Note: These birds are not recommended for raising at altitudes above 5000 feet.

I have had these chicks for 1 week and they have already shown how fast they grow. Next spring I plan on getting more becuase they have a good feed conservation ratio.
 
 
We had these chickens last spring and had the best chicken dinners all winter long. They were great! We intend on getting twice as many this year so we can have them all year long.
 
 
5 weeks into it and I can tell these chickens are incredible weight and mass gainers. The food to growth ratio is awesome and it really is the broad breasted, big leg chickens you promised. Thank you Murray McMurray Hatchery.
 
 
This will be the 8th year that I have raised the Jumbo Cornish Rock Cross birds. They are excellent. I am very involved in showing these chickens at our local fair and I have consistently been one of the top contenders for champion. THANKS
 
 
My Jumbo Cornish X Rocks are 3 days old. On arrival, they were lively, healthy, and ready to eat! In just 3 days, they are already showing remarkable growth. I plan to order more from McMurray Hatchery. Thanks for standing by your promise to deliver the best!
 
 
We've been buying these Cornish X Rocks every year for the last 5-8 years and we couldn't be more happy with the quality of chicks we've recieved and the quality of your customer service. Thanks for 10+ years of Great service!!!
 
 
McMurry Hatchery. All I can say is THANK YOU. The Jumbo Cornish Rocks I ordered all arrived in perfect health. The growth rate of these birds is astonishing! I have begun a photo record of these birds to show the incredible rate at which they grow. Truly AMAZING !! I cant wait till early summer when these birds are full grown and ready to eat... Already planning another shippment in the early Spring. Thanks you Harry Longabaugh
 
 
This is my first order of these incredible chicks. They are the fastest growing chicks I've ever seen. They don't waste one speck of feed! Thanks for the chicks that grow before your eyes.
 
 
Our success with McMurray's laying hens convinced us to try our hand at meat birds. We ordered the Jumbo Cornish X Rocks and were amazed at how quickly they grew! They seemed to grow overnight. We raised the birds for eight weeks and they all dressed out between 4 to 6 lbs, and the texture and flavor were fantastic!! We highly recommend these birds and ordering from McMurray!
 
 
These birds were awesome. This was our first try at this and my daughter made it to the Minnesota State Fair with her birds for 4-H and received a Blue Ribbon. They are very good eating. We will certianly be repeat customers. Thanks, Cindy
 
 
I recieved fifteen JumboCornish X Rocks in the fall to raise for the holidays. They are a wonder! The growth rate is incredible and they are so healthy. I will be proud to serve these meaty birds.Thanks McMurray folks. Expect more orders from our farm!
 
 
I have had great experience with these birds. I cannot believe how fast they grow. They are also very cost effective and economic.
 
 
I purchased 15 of these beautiful birds from you, and wanted to tell you thank you. We put two of them on the table last night and they were GREAT. They dress easy and they taste better than any chicken I have ever bought in a store. So thanks again.
 
 
We have ordered egg layers and the X Rocks..both have been perfect for us! Your the one stop shop and we'll always get our order for more birds from McMurray. The female X's grew quickly to six lbs. dressed weight and were easy to raise. Those chickens are too tastey to have just one! By the way nice place you have there... very interesting. I saw you guys on the TV show "dirties jobs"..funny how you sex chickens.. Thanks
 
 
My 50 chicks are now 24 days old. I am really enjoying the process of raising them. They are growing very fast. I am anxious to start again with a new batch. I am hooked. These birds will be delicious I know. THANKS. I will probably be ordering laying hens of varied color also.
 
 
I would like to say these birds are very wonderful. They dress out excellent. I am very pleased with how fast they grew. I would recommend these birds to anyone by far! Keep up the great work. Melissa
 
 
We ordered 50 of the jumbos for 4-H projects for my 3 kids. They started drinking and eating as soon as we put it in front of them (no beak dipping required!). In 5 days they have more than tripled in size! I am extremely pleased with these birds and will be ordering again next year for fair!
 
 
I bought 100 straight run Jumbo Cornish chicks, and I cannot believe the growth of these chicks. I am amazed at how healthy these chicks are.I am a believer in these Jumbo Cornish chicks. Keep up the good work!
 
 
These birds were a hit on Labor day weekend. They dressed out to 11 lbs average after 16 weeks. They were a crowd pleaser. Time to put in another order. Thanks!!!
 
 
I want to tell you how great your Cornish X Rocks are. I ordered them for several years and was very happy with them. Then I felt the need to order chicks from within my own state and save on shipping and stress on the chicks. What a mistake! They didn't grow nearly as well, I lost many to leg problems and they were never as "thifty" as your chicks. From now on, I will order my meat birds from Murray McMurray only and continue to ship them across the country to me! Thanks for having such efficient, tasty meat birds! Laura Bruland NE Oregon
 
 
WOW!!! I HAVE HAD THE JUMBO CORNISH X ROCK ALONG WITH MY OTHER SELECTED CHICKS. AT FIRST I WAS NOT ABLE TO PICK OUT WHICH ONES WERE WHO. BUT AFTER THE FIRST WEEK I HAD NO PROBLEM PICKING OUT (THE JUMBO CORNISH X ROCKS) THE LARGEST ONE OF THEM ALL. THANKS FOR A WONDERFUL AND LIVELY GROUP OF CHICKS.
 
 
We raised these birds last year for the first time. They were easy to deal with and were a moist bird. We ordered more this year for our freezer and for several of our friends.
 
 
These birds are true performers. They immediately started eating as soon as they came out of the shipping boxes. All were in perfect condition even after a chilly trip. They are currently seven weeks old and we haven't had any problems with "flip-overs" or problems with legs as we have in the past with birds from other hatcheries.
 
Did You Know?

An ideal chicken perch is about 2 inches in diameter. If you have bantams, a 1 inch diameter is big enough.
