Proper Feeding Nets More Eggs
University of Nevada Extension notes careful feeding boosts egg production. Gradual diet changes over a week to ten days prevent drop in intake. Provide at least 10 feet of hopper per 100 laying hens and adequate watering to avoid crowding. Separate timid hens, store dry leftovers with fresh feed to prevent mold, and use fish oil supplements in small quantities for vitamin A or D within 10 to 14 days.

High Egg Production is Government Goal
The government seeks three billion seven hundred dozen eggs from American hens in 1942 to meet home needs and aid Britain. Production rises 11 percent from 1941, with six to eight months of intensified feeding and care to boost yield per hen. Farms expect 10 percent more layers early 1942, driven by favorable prices and a price floor pledge. Farmers are urged to use enhanced poultry management during the emergency.
