Early and Late Layer Hens Show Summer Egg Yields
Do minion Poultry Husbandman led experiments at the Central Experimental Farm Ottawa to compare hens started in November January and February. November starters laid more eggs overall and especially in summer with 14.8 in autumn and 32.8 in summer months, while January birds averaged 14.5 in late winter and 30.1 in summer, and February birds 21.75 in early spring and 27.5 in summer, suggesting earlier starts yield higher yearly and summer output. The study notes late fall layers are heavier and warns against culling unfeathered hens in autumn as they may be the best layers.
