DO
YOU HAVE TOO MANY
CRACKED EGGS?
Heavy production of the reak, thin-shelled j
eggs -hich so easily crack or chock can be i
traced to the poultrynen, the poultty broeclf
ers or the feed rianufacturers—so re are
told by I'r, Eerg of the Western Washington
Experiment station. He estimates that as
high as 10 per cent of all eggs produced
on farms fall in this catagory„ Since they
bring as much as 20$ less than top-grade
eggs, the loss becomes considerable,.
Tie poultry breeder*r part
The poultry breeder is responsible for the
production of birds rliose genetic inheri
tance points torard thin-shelled egg-laying
ability. Good hatcherynon should use only
eggs rhose shells are strong and smooth.
Progeny tests should be begun rith only
eggs from-chicken families rhich uniformly |

Tho feed manufacturers have the responsi
bility of supplying feeds rhich make possi
ble good egg shell production. Pour things
in chicken feeds determine shell quality.
These are; Calcium, phosphorus, vitamin D
and manganese. Ground oyster shell or lime
stone rill supply calcium, and a good mash
rill furnish vitamin D, as roll as phos
phorus and manganese.
