Birds. drink less water when ii
is extremely cold, and egg produc-
ton usually drops with the tem-

A slump in egg produe tion may
be lessened during a cold spell by
keeping the water temperature
from dropping along with the out
side temperature, Mr. Lloyd said.
Some ponltrymen attach electric
heating cables, with thermostatic
control, to their water lines. Others
use Immersion heaters in the foun-
tains. The us of heat bulb over
the fountains will also help to
keep the water from freezing or
