BY DEBBIE KOONTZ
LANCASTER Seven Hi-Lme
distributors from Japan visited
Hy-Cross’ new plant in Lititz,
Tuesday, as part of a day-long visit
in the County.
Hy-Cross, a division of Hypro
Industries and a distributor for the
Hy-Line Company, just opened
their doors in mid-November and
is producing a whopping 100,000
chicks a week.
Of special interest to the foreign
distributors was the hatchery’s
nine incubators, each able to hold
78;000 eggs. The day they visited
was actually the first day that the
plant hatched brown eggs.
Also on the agenda for their day
in Lancaster County was a visit to
a Pennfield pullet house and layer
house, and a tour of the Pennfield
egg processing plant in Schoeneck.
