Egg and Poultry Prices Roughly Stable in 1955 Outlook
Columbus Ohio State University extension economist Robert Echwart predicts 186 egg and turkey prices will be about the same, with a slight chance of a 4 percent rise in laying hens on farms by January 1. Egg production may exceed last year from now through April, with March and April prices likely above 1954. Broiler placements rise about 8 percent, but no sharp price increases expected. A 1954 record 61 million turkeys kept prices down, and farmers may spread production to smooth returns.

Loafers Eat Nearly As Much As Good Layers
In Columbus Ohio State University extension poultry expert Emil Malinovsky notes layers consume only modestly more feed than non layers. Breeds must lay at least 36 hundred hens daily to be profitable, light breeds 60 to 65 percent, with non laying hens using about 80 pounds of feed yearly and heavy layers about 196 pounds. Reducing feed while maintaining production helps profits.
