Winter Egg Production Tied to Rich Protein Diet
Poultry experts note winter eggs yield higher profits but require hens to be fed heavily. Adequate protein is essential since winter laying focuses on body maintenance and egg production. Hens need fuel for warmth, so a rich diet supports egg output in cold months.
Materials for Poultry House Litter in Winter
Nebraska College of Agriculture advises chopped or shredded corn or sorghum fodder as litter for poultry houses in winter. The material is slower to break down than straw, requiring a well covered floor and several cleanings. A five inch slope per twenty feet of hard surface helps prevent litter piling, and low windows at the back encourage hens to face forward while scratching.

Blackhull Wheat Fails to Stand Cold Winters
Data from 13 U S experiment stations shows Blackhull winter kills 13 percent more than Kunred or Turkey wheat. Over five years 1921 to 1925 Blackhull survival averaged 45 percent while Turkey was 30.5 percent and Kanred 57.8 percent. Despite being a hard red winter variety, Blackhull yields heavily but mills claim it does not roll as well as other hard wheats and some mills discriminate against it.
