find command AIX

Hi all ,
could anyone please help with find command in AIX. I am trying to find files but there are more than 30thousand files in there.I realise I need to use xargs somehow but dunno the correct way to pull this.
Code:
find /log_directory/* -prune -xdev -type f -mtime +20 | xargs ls -l

the command seems to work OK if number of files is below 100 , but not thousands which defeats my purpose of using "xargs"

Kindly help.
Thanks in anticipation.
