Market Broilers Fattening Protocol in Two Week Plan
Two week fattening boosts market readiness for broilers especially after poor brooding. Confine a group in a small house, darken it, ventilate well, remove droppings, provide clean litter, and feed a wet mash of fatteners with milk. Feed three times daily and keep water away during feeding to maximize consumption. Maintain sanitary conditions to prevent spoilage and disease.
Free Range With Grass and Shade Is Favored
As soon as the chicks are old enough to leave the brooder they should be placed on free range with grass and shade if possible. If diseases affected the chicks last year place the coops on new range to prevent disease persistence. Grass provides all green feed needed during summer.
