Sale of Chicks Down in April
West Virginia commercial hatcheries produced 1,225,000 baby chicks in April, almost 100,000 below last year’s record for the month. The April hatch was the second highest on record, with output exceeding the eggs total by 107,000 and the 1945 figure by 25,000. January–April output reached 2,885,000 chicks, up from 2,664,000 in 1946. The dip reflects weak demand due to high feed prices and uncertain future egg and chicken prices.
