No question.
The B-300 peaks fast and high. Up to 90 percent-plus at 28
weeks. With top feed conversion ... 3.75 lbs. per dozen. And
excellent livability.
It holds a trim efficient body weight while producing at least 70
percent large and extra large eggs.
The clincher - the lean, tough B-300 lays... and lays, a Twelve
month hen-day production in excess of 280 eggs!
