FARM EDUCATION
BY DIR. ANDREW M. SOULE

the right methods of cultivation and
management.
The Leghorn is very valuable
chicken for use in Georgia. They
mature early, are active and good
layers. The white eggs which they
lay are attractive. They can be de
veloped into the stage of broilers or
friers about as quickly as the chick
ems from any of the breeds.
Probably you overfeed your chick
ems or are not giving them enough
variety There is a tendency to
make both of these mistakes. Of
course, in spite OF all you can do,
some of your chickens will die The
method of procedure in feeding
chicks recommended by our poultry
division is as follows:
A few hours before the chick
leaves the shell the yolk is absorbed
into its body. This yolk will serve
as food for several days. 1t is not
necessary or advisable to feed before
chicks are from 36 to 81 hours old,
as they cannot digest the yoll1 and
the food also, and early feeding will
usually cause diarrhea and death. A
chick will pick when only a few
hours old 1t is instinct rather than
hunger that causes it, however.
Hen and chicks are confined to
brood coop for at least two DAYS.
length of time depending upon the
weather. A tin cup or can is kept
full of scratch feed for the hen.
This container should be six or eight
inches from floor so that chicks
cannot reach it. In cold weather,
cracked corn makes up most of the
ration.
In the morning OF the second day,
water or milk or both are supplied
in shallow pans or fountains. In
real cold weather the chill is taken
off the water. On the afternoon of
the second day. fine ground oyster
shell and charcoal are fed in shall.
low pans or upon boards. On the
morning of the third day, a small
amount Of fine, ground chick feed,
rolled oats. or dried bread crumbs
is given. Any one or a mixture of
the above may be fed several times
a day, but only what chicks will
clean up in five minutes.
Wheat and corn may be ground
fine in a coffee mill and fed as a
scratch grain. After chicks are
week old, an additional feed of wheat
bran is fed in shallow pans or boxes.
After the second week, a mash is
made of equal parts of corn meal.
shorts, and bran, plus 10 per cent
OF beef scrap or fine ground bone.
This mixture may be, left before
BIRDS al all times. Hard boiled eggs
or milk may replace the meat scrap.
Milk is a very essential food. 1t
furnishes protein and vitamines.
acts as a laxative, and is the best
preventive of white diarrhea. PLENTY
OF fresh water and fine ground oys.
ter shell or fine grit should be avail
able at all times. Unless chickens
nave runs of green crops, the green
foods should be supplied. Green foods
are very essential.
Chicks should be weaned from fine
to medium-siZed grain as soon as
possible. Wheat, corn, barley and
pinhead oats or rolled oats make best
scratching feeds. Moldy or sour
grain should never be fed to Young
or growing chicks.
Chicks should be closely watched
the first two weeks and all weak and
deformed ones killed and burned as
soon as detected. The hen should
be returned to the laying house as
soon as chicks can care for them
selves.
