You have a farm, or you raise these as pets? You in Oz?
Have a question - I sometimes buy Cornish Hens from the supermarket for barbecue. They are smaller than regular roaster hens but taste exactly like chicken, no different. Wish to know - are they a different species from the domestic chickens or same bird, just slaughtered earlier? When purchased, they're already stripped of feathers, leaving only the flesh, bones and skin, vaccum packed in plastic. I don't see the complete physical form and do not know what it'd look like alive. Any idea? They are labelled Cornish Game Hen or Cornish Hen.
Cheers!
