Hi, i have examined her crop again today and i could feel chick crumbs in the crop - granted that this was at the end of the day - will check again tomorrow morning. I really need to do something about this - can anyone offer advice that would be easy to follow for someone who has not seen this before?

The 757's are bred to be killed between 8-10 weeks. How long you actually keep them is up to you, but I think by 9 months they are going to be a bit stringy. why don't you cull them by about say 12 weeks and freeze them if you have the space?
