PRODUCE EGGS
THAT WILL KEEP
Interesting Poultry Discussion by
Prof. kazmeier, A. & NJ.
Poultry Expert.

Now that the breeding season is
past, the question comes up as to
what are we going TO do with our
male birds. cocks, cockerels or
ROSTERS says Prof. +. w. Kazmeier,
poultry expert at the A. & VI. College.
1--WE know that We cannot possibly al.
low them TO associate with the fe-
males any longer They must be
separated. because We cannot afford
to produce fertile eggs, which rapidly
deteriorate In temperature OF GS de-
grees or above and Il is almost I'm.
possible to keep eggs in a tempera.
ture below 6S degrees In our warm
climate. Those who have any number
of males can do no better than build
small coop for them in the orchard
or wood lot and allow them to
range In large yard. II may be
necessary to clip their wings to pre-.
vent their flying over the fence. Those
who have only very few males as a
rule find II best to fatten and sell all
excepting maybe one or two OF the
most desirable. These should be con.
fined in a small coop with attached
covered yard and placed out in the
orchard or wood LOT In the shade. II
is not the best practice to sell all OF
the best breeding males.
"a large majority could perhaps
best market all of the males, using
some of the young cockerels the fol
lowing year and buying one or two
additional ones, thus doing away with
the necessity of providing a coop and
yard for the males out Of the breed
ing season.
