They identified 25 fossil pollen types, with ten key to the bog’s history.

Cod Liver Oil For Laying Hens In Dark Days
Use cod liver oil to aid laying hens during gloomy days. Vitamin D improves mineral utilization in feed, helping hens use surplus materials for shell production. Add two quarts per 100 pounds of feed or buy a vitamin enriched commercial feed. If mixing at home, blend oil with a small amount of feed first, then mix into the main supply.
Breeding From Pullets
Breeding from pullets can yield good chicks, though not ideal. Older roosters may produce thriftier offspring, but well rested pullets with minimally intensified egg production should still perform satisfactorily. Select only the best matured pullets with strong egg development for breeding.
Hen Feed Consumption By Breed
A Leghorn hen consumes 70 to 75 pounds of feed yearly while a Bed or Rock eats 80 to 86 pounds. Typical rations split mash and grain roughly half each. If grain is yellow corn and 40 percent of mash is corn, corn makes up 70 percent of the total ration, equaling one bushel per hen priced at the current cost of one dozen eggs per Hoard's Dairyman note.
