> Hi Teresa, without knowing more I would suspect your son will get Rock-cornish X. These are FAST growing birds usually ready for processing at 10 weeks. Any older an they run the danger broken legs,(they are that heavy) or heart attack. Normally feed is removed from them at night. Most of your supermarket roasters 7-8# or more are Rock-cornish roosters. The little cornish hens at 1-1/2 to 2 lbs are 2 week old hens.
