Synopsis

Stamina, environment, and careful breeding come together to boost egg production. This practical guide explains how fecundity in fowls is inherited and how breeders can use that knowledge to raise more productive hens.

This book covers how heredity interacts with factors like light, diet, housing, and climate. It explains the anatomy behind egg production and discusses how size, breed, and strain influence laying ability. You’ll find guidance on selecting stock, pairing lines, and choosing the right breed for different environments to maximize egg yield.


  • How heredity and environment shape a hen’s laying potential.

  • Practical steps for selecting birds with high fecundity.

  • Clear explanations of anatomical factors and how they relate to production.

  • Strategies for matching breed and strain to local conditions and goals.



Ideal for readers of farm and poultry manuals seeking to improve egg production through informed breeding and management.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
