Poultry Plan Promises 1360 Profit From 400 Pullets
A bulletin from George R. Shoup and wife of the Western Washington Experiment Station outlines a four hundred pullet unit as the right starting point for commercial eggs. They estimate a six month self supporting period with about 400 pullets producing 15 dozen eggs weekly at 55 cents per dozen, plus carcass value and feed costs. The note details initial outlay, overhead, and the need for management, noting that one couple can care for 1000 pullets and 500 hens while raising stock each year.
