Capons need managing
UNIVERSITY PARK -
Caponize a 21-day-old
cockerel chicken and it
becomes fragile to raise,
gets sick quicker and takes
close managing to get a
Grade A capon carcass to
market, according to Her
bert Jordan, Extension
Poultry Specialist.
Capons require close care
the first six weeks of life and
hospital-hke during the time
of surgery.
Three critical things to
remember in growing and
marketing capons are:
—A market must be
established for all the birds
at least a month before they
$2550 on the average,
The sale was well attended
with buyers listed from New
Jersey, New York, Virginia,
Minnesota, Indiana,
Georgia, Arkansas and
Pennsylvania.

are sold. Each bird must
brmg $1.40 per pound of
dressed carcass to make the
maximum net mcome.
—After surgery, all
campons must be watered,
fed, and cared for in a
manner that they stay
healthy and gam steadily. If
capons get fat too early they
will “go down on their legs”,
sit on their breast and
develop breast blisters and
twisted legs. As a result, the
carcass will be downgraded
to Grade B. Keep capons
healthy and trim until 2-3
weeks before slaughter, then
fatten them.
—Finally, capons only do
well if they are a roaster
cross. Broiler crosses do not
do well as capons. So select
the right genetic potential
when buying a bird.
