Poultry Talk Highlights Pekin Ducks and Profits
Colonel R J Locke outlines poultry farming potential before the national exhibition in Atlanta. He cites Ezra Coe of Massachusetts near Savannah, producing over 2 000 ducks and 5 000 chickens from a small setup, with incubators, careful feeding, and strong profits. Rankin of South Easton shows 1885 Pekin success, and Locke predicts high returns for Georgia growers in 1886. The report notes Pekin ducks’ market appeal and practical farming methods.
