Selection of Breeding Birds Sometimes Hard
The article explains calculating breeding stock to ensure enough hatching eggs. It states a safe estimate of four hatchable eggs per week per bird, so 100 breeders yield about 400 eggs weekly. It notes 70 to 80 percent of incubated eggs hatch and at least half of hatchlings are cockerels, with extra stock reducing risk of shortages.
