Cull Flocks To Cut Bill In Low Egg Season
Michigan State College poultry specialist J. M. Moore urges farmers to cull nonlaying hens to cut feed costs as egg prices drop. He says a layer laying two eggs weekly rarely pays, four eggs improves profitability, and six months of low prices require acting now. Look for small combs and wattles, and send poor producers to market.
