Question:
Which of the following six lines is
most important to today’s surviving
poultryman?
K
o-
If you answered F. (the “Bottom Line”) you
are correct. The other lines (identified below)
all play a part, of course, in making up the
bottom line. But don’t catch yourself bragging
to your neighbors about peak production or egg
size or feed consumption if your bird isn’t the
best “bottom line” performer. The DEKALB
DK layer, we believe rates with the best on
"bottom line” potential. We’d be glad to share
with you some of the facts that make true this
statement.
(Identification of other lines above A Hen-day production, B. Hen-housed
production, C Livability. D Feed consumption, E % Large eggs)
