Poor Management Is Costly Practice To Poultry men Poor mana^eirulit i- pi\ c:iL > one of the giOatest..reasons why :p..?r.v N. C. pouitrymen tail to i\.ii/e any profit . :rom raising su:r.::ur hatched chicks, "-say? Prof. Iv>y S. Dearstyp.e, he.d of the P< -khtry Department at Suite College. Usually the vitality of t.ie to hatched chicks is much Iowit Man early hatched chicks, he said, ad ding that eggs used tor hatching purpo.-es at this time of year ..re secured from hens that have' laid for nearly a full year, and because of this, are not of high vitality. Consequently, the hatcheryman usually starts eggs that do not hatch well and produce chicks of'j reduced' vitality compared to the1, spring hatched chicks. Chicks started in hot weather usually have a rather dormant ap petite and do not -develop on a comparable basis with early hatch-! ed chicks, and as the vitality is down, the chances of disease in creases and death from causes oth er than that of contagious disease germs increases. Producers starting chicks in the summer should exercise every possible care in management, he said. Ventilation of houses must be carefully watched, especially if the confinement system of brood ing is used. Cool nights very often follow warm days and direct drafts orv biwlr -tkrrifiu >uch nights may lead tu summer colds, a condition very difficult to ^handle. Also, wet litter may bo a factor aiding the infection of e-ccidiosis, he said.
