Cut Feed And Labor Costs By Selling Poor Pullets
Poultrymen can reduce feed and labor costs by marketing pullets that developed slowly without a marked drop in egg production this winter says Dr. Robert E Puillins of the University of Maryland poultry department. No amount of feeding or management will make a poor bird good. under best conditions some birds fail to develop, and such birds cause high mortality in the laying house. Even if they survive the first laying year they seldom produce profitably.
