Excellent roasted. Get them fresh if you can. Much tastier than frozen.

I don't think so. And I don't intend to eat one in the future, as I am a vegetarian.
"A Cornish game hen, also sometimes called a poussin, Rock Cornish hen, or simply Rock Cornish, is a young chicken sold whole. Despite the name, it is not a game bird. The Cornish hen was developed in the late 1950s in California by a French immigrant; the 'Cornish' part of the name is derived from the most common bird grown and sold in this manner, a cross of the Cornish and Plymouth Rock breeds called a Cornish-Rock.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture requires that all chickens sold as Cornish game hens be no more than 2 pounds in ready-to-cook weight and no more than 5 to 6 weeks old at slaughter. As is common in the poultry industry, store-bought hens may be either male or female specimens, despite the common usage of the word "hen" typically denoting a female."

I stuff mine and cook them in mandarine orange sauce.

Never tried that. I usually brush them with olive oil or melted Smart Balance and rub them with herbs.
