WENE CHICKS for BIGGER EGGS, 



Better BROILERS and ROASTERS 



WYAN-ROCKS 



"Wyan-Rocks" is a copyrighted name 

 for WENE'S special blend developed 20 

 years ago to meet the demand of New- 

 Jersey broiler growers for quick growth 

 at low cost. This special breed was so 

 successful we now have to produce 

 one million annually to meet the wide- 

 spread demand. In combining White 

 Wyandottes and White Rocks we have 

 intensified their good qualities and offer 

 you an outstanding three-way, Extra- 

 Profit breed that is without comparison. 

 You get ROASTERS in less time than 

 it takes purebreds; you get BROILERS in 10 to 15 days earlier than 

 purebreds; you get early production of large brown EGGS. Truly, 

 a 3- Way Profit Producer available only from WENE. 



WENE NEW HAMPSHIRES 



Here is a breed that will perform well 

 on the average farm, under ordinary 

 Poultry-Raising conditions, because of 

 their Breeding Background. They make 

 broiler weight fast . . . 272 to 3 pounds 

 at 9 to 10 weeks is common. In building 

 up Wene New Hampshires we have 

 gone to the finest breeders in New 

 England for eggs and R.O.P. cockerel 

 chicks. With this background, our Super 

 X Mating has all the reputation qualities 

 of a true New Hampshire and we use 

 these flocks to supply replacements for our other matings. 



WENE BARRED ROCKS 

 AND WHITE ROCKS 



When a customer asks for an all-round, 

 dual-purpose bird — for both eggs and 

 meat — we can recommend WENE Barred 

 Plymouth Rocks or WENE White Plymouth 

 Rocks with complete confidence that 

 ordinary care will produce fine results. 

 Our Barred Rocks are hard to beat and 

 command a premium on most live fowl 

 markets. However, many broiler and 

 roaster growers particularly select our 

 White Rocks because they sell well 

 due to their dressed qualities of rich 

 yellow skin and exceptional plumpness.

WENE CHICKS 



$65 Profit in 6 Weeks 

 "I have been buying chicks for over 

 20 years from a good mar. 

 hatcheries; but I can truthfuny say 

 I had rather buy irom Wene 

 account they always fill c: 

 they say, chicks arrive in good con- 

 dition and the 14-day livability guar- 

 antee reduces loss cost. I will take 

 the 100 New Hampshire Reds I pur- 

 chased last Spring. These I found a 

 ready sale for at $1 each when six 

 weeks old. I sold 88. I figure I made 

 a profit of $65." — Mrs. Catherine 

 Davis, New York. 



Wene Customer 

 For 10 Years 



Am pleased to write you my experi- 

 ence with your Wyan-Rock Cross— 

 for the past ten years have been 

 purchasing my chicks from you. Had 

 to skip raising chicks last year due 

 to my husband's illness, but kepi 

 over about fifty hens, have about 

 30 left now and they are still shell- 

 ing eggs, average seven or eight a 

 day. I consider them the best chicks 

 any one can buy. 



My ten years purchasing your chicks, 

 speaks for itself.

Likes Bar reds 

 For Broilers 



During March, 1945, I ordered 100 

 Barred Rock Chicks from you. I re- 

 ceived the chicks the first week in 

 April, 1945 — they were the prettiest 

 baby chicks I had ever seen. My 

 friends all said they never seen chicks 

 shipped that distance, be so 

 and hearty. They all went right to 

 eating and drinking, at eight weeks 

 old, I sold them for Broilers, they 

 weighed 2'/2 lbs. each and I was so 

 surprised at my profits, feed 

 high. But I doubled the amount spent 

 for feed. 



It will always be Wene Chicks for me.

BROILER GROWERS LIKE THESE 

 WENE BARRED RED-ROCK CROSS 



Profit Three Ways: (1) Broilers (2) Roasfers (3) Eggs 



Wene Barred RED-ROCK cross are exceptionally vigorous birds that grow 

 unusually fast into plump, well-meated broilers and capons. These chicks 

 are produced by mating our best meat producing strains of New Hamp- 

 shire Red females and Barred Rock males. In the cross both pullets and 

 cockerels look very much like Barred Rocks. They develop rapidly and 

 evenly into prime broilers and they make excellent tender-meated capons. 

 The pullets mature rapidly into the finest kind of layers.
