Telkwa Gives Valuable Hints on.
Hatching and Care of Chickens «

oes]

Where you want hatching eggs
have one rooster for fifteen hens
of the medium breeds, and one!
to twenty of the smaller breeds.
Give the hens plenty of exercise
and do not over-feed, particularly.
on meat feeds and wet mashes,
as this’ will ‘unfavorably: affect
the hatehability of the eggs. If
possible, give some milk as drink,

eggs of an even, average size,
with a moderately thick shell.
Don’t keep eggs. longer than two
weeks, for not only may. the germ
be weakened, but stale eggs take
longer, to hatch than fresh. ones,
Don t set dirty errs.

. Deep eggs for hatebing at : an
evenly low temperature of from
50 to. 60 degrees Fahrenheit; and:
store them with the large end up
that the air space may retain. -its
proper position and that the germ
may .be properly centred. Set
eggs to hatch out not earlier than
late April or your ‘pullets; will
moult in the fall. and you will get
no winter. eggs.
