Restricted Feeding Plan Aims to Cut Poultry Costs
Dr. O B Kent of Chicago advocates a restricted feeding plan for pullets to save up to half feed costs. Pullets on the diet eat about 20 pounds of feed versus 34 pounds under full feeding, with five days of moderated feeding and two days of limited oats. Kent claims this method could be worth as much as 440 million dollars annually and has boosted egg production by about 1 1/4 dozen eggs per year in tests over 12 years.
