Listen in as heritage poultry breeders discuss their 2021 breeding and hatching experience.
Topics include:
How to manage the breeder flock in the heat (unexpected and expected)
What went well
What challenges popped up
Q&A
How did the USPS shipping problems affect our breeders? Does sanitizing eggs before incubation make a difference in the hatch rate? What's the fertility and hatch rate for a 30 day old egg? What new opportunities showed themselves for our breeders this year? We cover all these questions and more.
The panelists, Karen Johnston, Erin Angulo, Matt Hemmer, and Lisa Van Horn, are previous presenters on the APPPA Breeder Live program. Matt breeds Faverolles, Welsummers, and Erminettes. Lisa breeds Welsummers and Barred Rocks. Karen breeds Rhode Island Reds, and Erin breeds Delawares.

I'm glad to see Karen take the Rhode Island Red back to the way they were supposed to be! And their egg colors are horrible they definitely need to work on them and I'm glad to see that Karen is doing that!

I feed a variety of feeds on a regular basis that the birds seem to eat well. I do mix it up during non critical times so if one feed is not available, I can switch without "shocking" my birds. I have found it difficult to get outside stock of my breed Partridge Chantecler here in Ontario. I hope to go the hatching egg route this year to get some numbers and a complimentary line to my present line.

Ive had chickens for years and am thinking of starting to do some breeding for profit would it be best to start with one breed or multiple

@thomasbroderick3194 3 года назад

Also just built a new shed wich has 5 5 by 10 feet pens and a 20 foot long pen for chicks

There's a lot to consider when you start breeding. Focusing on one breed is always a sound approach to start, but ultimately that's a question for you to consider.

Thanks for the advice

Just starting out my pp journey. I’ve been raising chickens for many years, but this will be a new experience. Glad to see there are groups to interact with others of like mindedness.
