POULTRY NOTES

POULTRY NOTES
If YOU have not already done SO, it
Is time to get out the incubators and
brooders and give them thorough
cleaning and disinfection.
"A good way to keep certain eggs
separated from others while in the in
cubator, so that you can determine
which are from certain cock and hen
cir you have marked them to start
WITH, is to place the eggs in a wire
mesh box. with top of same material
or in gauze sectional bag in which
the live chick will have ample room
to kick out.
You should have gotten rid of all
non-productive hens and extra cocks
and cockrels by this time. Unless a
cockrel is a particularly good one, sell
him or kill and eat him.
Look out for the mites as the warmer
spring days come. One day you may
not notice them. and in a few days
afterward they will cover everything.
Don't forget that lack of sunlight in
the coops helps to breed these vermin
as well as disease. Clean houses all
the year round mean no vermin. less
disease and very little worry, though
there Is always plenty of work to do.
If you want to get start with
chicks all of the same size and age
early in the year, it's not a bad idea
to try day-old chicks. They can be had
at from SIS per 100 up, depending upon
the quality, and most any poultry
raiser will let you have some at double
the price of his eggs Then there are
numerous hatcheries selling ordinary
to good grades at the lower prices.
OF course. always bear in mind, that
raising the chicks IS about nine-tenths
of the business: almost anyone can
hatch them.
If you have not done so. learn about
feeding for winter laying. No matter
how good the stock. they will not lay
during the cold months unless proper
ly housed and properly fed. Just filling
them up is not sufficient.
Better kill off very sick fowl az
once. unless very valuanbe, and in that
event separate it from the rest.
