MAY CHICKS
are
MONEY MAKERS
That is rm opinion. What
is >ours° Lets figure it out
togelnei
First of all, May chicks are
cheapei to grow The weath
ei is more favoiable Much
less fuel is lequued If you
were unable to start early
chicks, youi not - so - tight
brooder house can now be put
to use If you did brood an
early batch, then put the
same equipment back to work
on this second lot That’s sound business
May chicks will lay large eggs eaiher And will keep you in lop
production the year-round. A full house at steady high production
will give you continuous top income.
Babcock Bessies are bred to give you this high production They
regularly peak at 90%. Also are g6od hot weather birds.
These Are Long-Winded Layers
May hatched pullets have their low production when egg prices are
lowest Kept over, -hey will again be in full lay when prices are
highest We have had May hatched Bessies laying 82% in August
Yes, they may not give you as quick cash leturn as January chicks,
but in their 13-15 months of continuous production, they may earn
mole money for you How does that add up with you’ Does your
figurine agree'’
We sliongly lecommend Babcock Bessies as your best May chick
