Methods for Growing Pullets Without Forcing Growth
The article outlines several satisfactory pullet-rearing methods with emphasis on space, shelter, and feed. Indoor growth is common while grass-range shelters are popular. excessive high-protein feeds may harm growth and strict feeding times are less effective than measured dispensing. At Fredericton, Canada, a labor-light method uses free access to mash grain range feeding, oyster shell, grit and water, with large feed hoppers and self-balancing rations. Pullets are then given a laying ration before production reaches five percent.
