BREEDING FOi'.
EGG PRODUCTION
(E=xperimental Farms Note)
For many years, iilipr0venlent 1.0
egg production has been. sought ma1n-
ly through the -election ,.,f males
from high producing darns and mat-
in>, these to liens with good egg re-
cords. :There is little doubt but that
this. policy has -raised the general
1
erase production above that. obtained,
when 11,, attempt was made to select
the breeders fri'til a production stand, -
point. T-Ir.wrver, there is ntuch:evi-
cienct' to show that tlse daughters of
hig1, producing dams as well as the
daughters of sires frr,ni high produc-
ing clams may not 'necessarilybe•
goodp roducers unless the sire and
dam are proven breeders. Poultrymen
carrying • on breeding operations un-
�, r
der a government Txlic_v have an ex-
cellentopportunity of producing. valu-
able breeding stock for distribution
among commercial poultrymen.
1 y
The nl.e st effective way of breeding
to improve egg production Is to- select.
l g
the breeding stock from among the
progeny of sires and darns .that have
proved to be good breeders. Such :a
method of breeding constitutes what
is known as progeny testing. When.
the progeny of a certain Mating prove
to be uniformly good, that salve mat-
ing should be repeated for as many
years as the parents 17^ living
andbreeding ` stock should be selected;
from the progeny. To prevent in-
breeding, new blood should be intro-
duced into a flock every few years.:'
but only after the progeny of the new
sire or dant have proved to be satin -
factory Producers.
At the Fredericton Experimental
Station last year, records were kept.,
oii the progeny of six males. Ti1e re
cords show the elate each bird was
hatched, her age at commencement of
laying, her body weight every fora
weeks and the number: and size of
eggs produced. • Hatching records for
the sire and dantare kept and individ-
ual characteristics are noted. These
records shote clearly the value of cer-
tain males and females as breeders
over others of equally good ancestors.
It has been deinonstrated that
breeders should be selected Only from
matings wt ?rich gave high- hatchability
and '0112011 gave daughters possessing
slniftii•ntly desirable characteristics:
