I would think anything you do with chicken, you can do here.

FWIW We had a discussion at one of our little Dinner Clubs over
Cornish Game hens and the consensus was they are just young chickens.
We all remarked how we'd never seen a Cornish Game hen farm. So after
some googling, we discovered that there used to be Cornish Game hen
farms, and there may be a few still left, but now Cornish Game Hens-
for the most part are just young small chickens.
