I know Broilers grow faster and have more weight, but is their any hope for people like me that prefer rearing white cockerels? They are easier for me to rear to maturity with very little mortality rate. I just want to know the best way to sell them off when they weigh 2.0-2.2kg. |

Ura: Yes, it was. One more question...How long do your cockerels take to grow to maturity from Day Old? And do you keep them caged up throughout, or you let them roam about at a certain point? |
Re: Any Hope For Cockerels? by Ura: 9:26pm On Apr 16, 2015 |
kay29000: I thought I had replied you. It takes 6 - 8 months and from about 3-4 months I have to release them within a demarcated area. I keep food there so they hardly stray far except if they see a hen nearby then they try to follow. If you keep them caged up throughout, they will fight incessantly. 1 Like |
