Shelter and shade boost poultry growth and profits
Advice from agricultural notes emphasizes providing natural shade to poultry to counter heat stress, noting shade improves activity, feeding, and development while reducing losses. Skim milk aids growing hens, while consistent breed choice and proper vermin control protect chick viability and profitability.
Summer Chicks and Turkey Logic for Poultry Breeding
Summer chicks hatch or raise in July and August yield higher profits, with pullets as summer layers and cockerels ready for high prices. Chicks thrive with shade, ground access, and moving flocks to corn, meanflowa, and pastures. Vermin control in winter reduces losses. older fowls resist vermin better. Turkeys need daily grain to grow, with corn as a smaller part, and geese should be managed calmly to protect fertility. Maintain breeder stock and let older geese have run of the yard when doubt arises.
