Pullets that really pay their way are those
that produce at a high level month after
month . . . not for just a few weeks after
they are housed. That’s why all parts of the
Beacon program . . . starting, growing and
laying , . . are designed to produce pallet s
with stamina.
Much of this is accomplished in the im
portant period from six weeks until housing.
During this time nutnents are needed to
develop fully feathered, strong boned, big
framed birds . . . with the digestive capacity
for efficient conversion of feed into eggs.
Beacon Growing rations provide these need
ed nutrients and are also specially formu
lated for the breed and type (i.e., high speed
or meat strain) of bird to which they are to
be fed.
We’ve a Beacon Advisor on call to help
you plan, set up and administer the most
’profitable feeding piogiam for your,flock,
equipment and available labor. We think his
specialized training and experience can help
you make more money. We’d be glad to have
him visit your farm.
