Chicks Dead in Shell Highlight Incubator Debate
A Farmers' Review perspective argues incubators and hens share limits in hatch rates. It notes 80 percent hatch in fertile eggs supports incubator efficacy while the remaining 20 percent failing suggests inherent unhatched potential. The piece urges less bias and smarter egg selection.
Portable chicken coop aids orchard farming
The portable poultry house shown in the drawings is used by a successful farmer. Dimensions are indicated on the plan and sled arrangements allow moving the house when ground is foul. Hens under apple trees scratch soil around roots and control insects, with a cotton curtain for ventilation.
Raise More Turkeys on Farms
An editorial argues for breeding turkeys to tolerate confinement rather than keeping them in a half wild state. It contends that persistent selection for breeders that handle confinement will gradually produce a practical strain. The piece warns that without this shift turkey production could decline.
Avoid Crowding Chick Brooders To Cut Losses
The piece argues against overcrowding chicks in brooders or under hens as the cause of high death rates. It notes the birds endure foul air and filth, with dampness and cold harming young fowl, urging better space and conditions to reduce losses.
