Selection of Cockerels
We gave great care to the selection of the males heading the breeding pen, every bird having perfect head points, being strong and vigorous, and as large as we could find him, where we felt sure that no outside blood had been introduced.
The Brooder House during the Fall, was materially added to, giving us twenty Hover Pens, three feet wide, and twelve Nursery Pens, each nearly five feet wide, this giving us a Brooder House 118 feet long by 16 feet wide.
We again this year (1909) supplemented our own breeding pen with purchases of eggs from different sources.
