Culling to Increase Egg Production
An exhibit from the United States Department of Agriculture at the International Livestock Exposition in Chicago shows two hen pens. Twelve hens that were not culled laid 100 dozen eggs while consuming 900 pounds of feed costing 20.70, compared with eight culled hens laying the same number of eggs while using 600 pounds of feed costing 13.50. The non culled group used 50 percent more feed with no extra eggs, highlighting feed, labor, housing, and capital costs. The exhibit outlines quick criteria to judge poor versus good layers to boost poultry profits.
