ARRANGING NEST
FOR BR00DY HEN
TRY Out All Fowls Before Giving
Them Eggs Selected for
Incubation
DUST WITH INSECT POWDER
At Matching Time Biddy Should Not
Be Disturbed Until All Chicks Arc
Out-PIan Of Model Coop
Given Herewith.
This is the way to set a hen.


AS the time approaches for the hen
to become Sroody or sit, and care Is
taken to cook into the nest, 1t will be
seen that there are few soft, downy
feathers being left there by the hen !;
also the hen stays longer on the nest
when laying at this time and on being
approached will quite likely remain
on the nest making clucking noise,
ruffling her feathers and pecking at
the intruder. When it is noted that
hen sits on q nest for two or three
nights in succession and that most OF
the feathers are gone from her breast,
which should feel hot to the hand, she
is ready to be transferred to a nest
which has been prepared for her be-
forehand. The normal temperature OF
the hen is from 1O6 degrees to 1O7 de-
grees f., which varies slightly during
incubation.
y Dust the hen thoroughly with In
sect powder, holding her by the feet
with the head down and working the
powder well into the feathers. The
\ powder should also be sprinkled in
the nest. The nest should be in some
quiet, ut-of-the-way place where the
hen will not be disturbed. Move her
from the regular laying nest at night
and handle her carefully In doing so.
Put china egg in the nest where she
Is to sit, and place board over the
opening so that she cannot get off.
Toward evening Of the second day go
in quietly where she is sitting, leave
some feed and water, remove the
board from the front or top at the
nest and let the hen come off when
she is ready. Should she return 20 the
nest after feeding, remove the china
egg or eggs and put under those that
are to be incubated. If the nests are
slightly darkened the hens are less
likely to become restless. At Matching |
time they should be confined and not |
be disturbed until the Matching is COM
pleted unless they become restless,
when it may be best to remove the
chicks that are Matched first. In cool
weather it is best not to- put more
than ten eggs under the hen. Later in
the spring one can put IL to Is, &C
.cording to the size Of the hen.

NESTS FOR SITTING HENS.

Where only few hens are set
special quarters are not neces-
sary, but if many are used a
separate room should be provid-
ed. If portable nests have been
provided for the laying hens, the
sitters can be moved in them to
new quarters. OF the various
styles Of nests used for sitting
hens this one has given good sat
isfaction: A box 10 inches
square, Is inches high with
board six inches high in front
to prevent nesting material from
falling out. The nests may be
arranged in tiers with a hinge
front which makes platform
for each tier when open. When
using a bank Of nests as the one
just described, it would be well
to place three or four inches Of
damp earth in each nest. The
nesting material Is next put in
and may consist of hay, chaff, or
straw. Pack this material down
firmly and shape a circular nest
out Of it, which should be slight
ly deeper at the center than at
the edges, as a nest so shaped
will prevent the eggs from roll :
ing out from under the hen and
becoming chilled.
