Ah, you had actual freerange sort then? Called 'Wild cornish hen'. Had i
known, I'd have adapted the recipe selections.

It's like Duck. I find the farm raised sort delicious but the true wild
ones do not suit me.

You'll probably like the regular grocery store 'cornish hens' (actually they
are just young chickens).
