Keep Summer Egg Quality High and Market by Grade
A Town State College extension poultryman urges farmers to market only high quality eggs by grade to maximize profits. He notes a growing price gap between No 1 and No 2 eggs as warmer weather arrives and predicts a 10 to 12 cent spread in July and August. Recommendations include gathering eggs three times daily, storing below 60 degrees, handling large ends carefully, and marketing by grade at least twice weekly. Proper management such as confining the flock segregating roosters from hens and providing one nest per 4 to 6 birds also boosts profits.
