Put it all to
The Babcock B-300V is rapidly reestablishinj
herself as the world’s top layer. Egg producer
flocks well into production are reporting
performance they haven’t seen for years ...
from any layer. In many cases, in fact, they ar<
reporting their best performance ever.
But in this business, potential is only half th
game. Babcock backs its bird with the most pr
fessional, experienced distribution team in the
industry.
Consider these features:
PRODUCT
The B-300V rates “excellent” in mil key indu
itable performance:
•EGG PRODUCTION - The B-300V peaks hi
for quick recovery of your costs, and early prof
persistency after peak translates to top egg proi
•FEEDCONVERSION - Theß-300Vhasapi
efficiently convert feed to eggs. From 1966, uni
was withdrawn from Random Sample Tests, si
feed converter in the industry.
♦LIVABILITY - Field results from all B-300V
reintroduction in late ’76 indicate she may havi
in the business
♦EGGSHELL QUALITY -- Eggshell strength
1977 B-300V. Between 1972 and 1976, shell strei
has improved by a measured 15% in early lay t
(68 weeks).
♦RESISTANCE TO STRESS - We call it “manageability”. The B-300V is a calm,
adaptable bird. She resists environmental stresses and recovers rapidly from
management problems.
SERVICE
The Babcock distribution team has developed service programs to provide each
individual grower or egg producer with the optimum product for his specificoperation
♦DELIVERY - Careful, on-time and courteous.
♦QUALITY PRODUCTS -- Birds arc hatched and/or grown with Babcock technical
assistance. Uniform, healthy chicks and started pullets are vaccinated for your area Vc
challenges, and are correctly and fully-developed for their age.
♦SERVICE - Experienced, professional service is available before, during and after delivery. %
* FLEXIBILITY Babcock distributors are equipped to supply the needs of your operation, whatever the size of
your order. Cage or floor grown started pullets are available, depending on the needs of your program.
Talk to a professional about your next replacement flock. The businessmen behind the businessman’s bird have
a performance package tailored to your chick or started pullet program.
