Feeding Pullets in Cold Season
Poultry expert D C Henderson urges a rich feeding program for pullets to ensure surplus body fat for heavy winter egg production. He recommends milk feeding, meat scraps or tankage if milk is limited, and a dry mash mix of cornmeal oats bran middlings and tankage with salt. Late hatched birds need bran and mash to gain flesh. early hatched pullets should receive heavy grain and limited dry mash to store fat for winter production.

Late Laying Hens Best for Building Up Flock
Late laying hens are the main egg income source. Breeding should use hens with proper size and desirable traits, not poorly colored birds or those with disqualifications. Hens molting after September 15 should be mated with top males or with proven production stock.
Arranging Nests for Easy Cleaning Is Best Plan
Arrange nests for the hens and the new pallets as soon as possible. Build the nests in a long row with a 12 finch base and partitions. Fasten with hooks so the structure comes apart for cleaning. Hens prefer dark nests and avoid light ones. Place nests along the wall to collect eggs without entering the scratching area.
Attending to Ventilation for Winter Egg Production
The article notes that winter egg output from old hens hinges on favorable conditions like electric lighting. Old hens start shedding in June with some delaying until fall or December. For reliable early winter production, rely on the pullet flock.
Blood Spots in Eggs Causes and Management
Blood spots in eggs arise from various causes and usually do not threaten flock health. Common in commercial flocks, no management changes needed unless numbers rise. Check the ration for faults, and note pepper or other condimental feeds as possible contributors.
