Pictures Updated Dec 21 ,2010-Superior F-1 and Dominant CZ

Have three different batches.


We now have Hubbard white 45 day broilers. Colored Hubbard (Superior F-1) slow grow broilers as well as Dominant CZ layers.

The Colored Hubbard s (Superior F-1 ) broilers and the Dominant CZ are new to me.

IN the pictures note that you dont see many birds....thats due to the effectiveness of the Hover Brooders.....only the ones that are feeling warm are out side the Hover eating and drinking...the others are still under it...get nice and warm..... , They come and go as they feel the need for heat or the lack of it......under it there is no place for pile ups either,as usually a pile occurs in corners...there are no corners in the Hover....so they dont pile and die.


Air plane was very stressful for the latest chicks........Dominant CZ were born Spet1,2010 and Colored Hubbard bornSept3,2010.......they arrived in Manila Air port at 5:30 am......scheduled to arrive Bacolod at 9:30 am....but the plane had engine failure prior to take off so they had to wait....................and ait.....finally arrived Bacolod-Silay at 12 noon....arrived at their brooder about 1 pm

all were active and seemed healthy except for the 5 male Dominant CZ........put them in the "hospital" for special doses of brown Sugar water for electrolyte replacement all afternoon.......but even they seemed to have recovered enough to join the others under the Hover brooder....we'll see if they stay healthy and active.The 5 were not moving at all...the brown sugar water perked them up slowly.

Eggs: The new Superfood

http://www.worldpoultry.net/news/eggs-the-new-superfood-7391.html

Eggs can help you to lose weight and stay fit and healthy. In fact, eggs should be considered a "superfood", according to a new study carried out by dietician and public health nutritionist, Dr Carrie Ruxton.

The research paper, due to be published in Nutrition & Food Science Journal in June, confirms that eggs are a rich source of protein, as well as several essential nutrients, particularly vitamin D, vitamin B12, selenium and choline.

As well as being one of the most nutrient dense foods, Dr Ruxton’s findings also show that eating eggs helps a person feel fuller for longer and can therefore help with weight management and better diet quality. The antioxidants found in egg yolk may also help prevent age-related macular degeneration, an eye condition that can lead to blindness.

Coop roof replaced

The old " tarp " roof lasted only about 14 months due to sun kiling it.We will try Nipa this time......have invested P7000 so far and still need to spend about P4000 more for fish netting to hold the Nipa down
