Fatly Layers and Large Egg Strains The breed that evinces a ten- dency to early maturity gives its indication both in the male and female; the .cockerel will show the red comb and wattles early, and: he crows earlier than the others;.and I have found that if we wish to increase the desire for early laying we must observe this rule. Select.the pullet that lays first.and the ecockerel that Watch them; if ward. rapidly, keep them - for breeding purposes. If this plan early in the progeny and will be- come established in the strain to ing on how well and carefully it is carried out, oo. Then. there is another question: Are strains that, produce large eggs desirable? I think they.are, yet -some . experienced poultry -keepers do not advise selecting the largest eggs for hatching. A hen that as a rule lays medium- sized or rather small eggs, will oceasionally lay. an extra: large. one. I would not recommend. saving ‘these large eggs for hateh- |jing, for they are not the natural sized. egg for. this hen. There are large egg strains and amall egg strains of the same breed,’ and. the: -one that produces the ‘large eggs seems. far more valu- able to.me, and such strains are ‘bred and. 1 ade by selecting eggs us ‘ “that: ‘by “nature lay} © good sized eggs. -In:some cases it: probably i is. a fact, that the lit- Gs {is followed up year after year, the propensity to lay will begin a greater or less extent, depend-| pretense erence DAIRY, POULTRY AND FARM AIDS ee trtemtems eerie 1 { 1 i 4 hustling hen, the one-that is con- stantly digging and foraging for food, is the one most productive of eggs. It is because she is pro- ducing eggs that she requires more food. She may lay ‘an. ex- tra large egg, or slie may. lay quite small eggs, depending on her breeding. This prodactive ability, as well as her propensity to hustle for a living, she will transmit to the chickens, esnec- ially if mated to.a ‘male that in- | herits the same traits. The slug~ t gish ‘hen, too Jazy to eat. only fos | when food is placed before her, |' | will be apt to- become over-fat, | lay about two eggs a week at her best, and, while her eggs may be larger, they are more likely to be infertile. ‘Such hens will never give good results as breeders, be- eause if the chicks hatch’ they will lack the vitality which would enable them.to grow fapidly ‘and make pullets that will lay early |” and often. - “Here is ‘where the. trap nest comes into valuable usé, To build up a strain of large ége dyers; select from, hens that: lay layge. and: -uniform: sized’: eggs and. lots. of: them, . and they. will: cul prove ‘inost. profitable in which you can buy i in quantity ‘at the drug. store. -This should be placed :i ina box where the birds |, can get in, but. where. the. litter is not apt to. be scratched in.
