Weigh-In Report on Heifers and Store Egg Layers

Last Saturday we weighed our heifers east of town with Don Torre son D. C. Barringer Ray Latoery and Roger Scheaffer assisting. Don Rix from Inwood Iowa helped. Heifers show feed but rate of gain is modest. Pen 1 trailed Pen 2. complete figures available for interested readers. Cat Judy and Edie lead our caged layers, laying daily with only one miss. All six hens have produced 3 dozen eggs on 14 and a half percent feed. Figures show about 4 tenths of a pound feed per dozen eggs, with Purina feeding producing about 58 cents feed cost and 87 cents egg value at 23 cents a dozen. Normally eggs would grade higher than 23 cents per dozen. You can produce eggs for as little as 14 cents per dozen feed cost on Purina. Visit the store to start today. Purina Boosters can help pullets in production stay laying longer. A little goes a long way, so pick up some today.
