IDC I.TliV QUESTION" j How can moodiness be eliminated : from a flock of Barred Plymouth Rocks ? ( Answer: Brood in ess is an inherited trait and can be eliminated by carcjful breeding. Start now and remove jail broody birds from the breeding jfioek. These birds should be sold or | used at Lome as l'ood. If they are j kept and placed ir. the laying flock a band should be placed on the legs 8 . for IdenSficatior. Xo bird showing |a bano sTiould be carried into the !ncxt year cither for laying or breed I tug.
