THE HENYARD 
The Best Type of Roost 
In discussions of poultry subjects, lit- 
: tie or nothing is said as to the best kind 
of perches. I would like some informa¬ 
tion on this subject; the shape, size and 
anything that would be desirable to fol¬ 
low to have the best perch. It would 
seem that the comfort of hens during the 
night time is worthy of consideration. 
Maine. s. s. 
There doesn’t seem to be a great deal 
to say about perches; a hen appears to 
be satisfied with anything from an apple 
tree limb swaying in the wind to a cold 
mowing machine seat under a shed. This 
doesn’t prove that she hasn’t any choice, 
however; only that she may be denied 
one. The books say that corns upon the 
feet of fowls may be caused by roosting 
upon perches of too small diameter, forc¬ 
ing the bird to cling tightly with her toes 
to get a,good hold. I don’t know whether 
this is so or not; at any rate, it is a 
handy explanation of the existence of 
corns where the wearing of too tight or 
too loose shoes cannot be invoked. The 
fashionable perch is undoubtedly the uni¬ 
versally used 2x4 scantling, placed nar¬ 
row edge up and having the sharp upper 
corners rounded. This appears to be en¬ 
tirely satisfactory to the hen, the stick 
is strong enough to support all the fowls 
that can gather upon it, and that dimen¬ 
sion stuff is to be found almost every¬ 
where. I know of no reason for thinking 
that a round pole of about 2 in. diameter 
isn’t equally satisfactory to the birds that 
use it; perhaps it is more so, for I think 
that it could be shown that birds in the 
state of nature habitually roost upon 
round perches and that their feet have 
been anatomically adapted to that sort of 
support. Until the hen can speak for 
herself, however, we shall not know what 
her real preference is, and the best we 
can do is to follow custom. m. b. d. 
Electrically Heated Brooders 
Is there any way I could heat my in¬ 
door brooders (100 chick size) by elec¬ 
tricity ? e. o’b. 
Windsor, Vt. 
I do not know of any electrically heat¬ 
ed brooders upon the market, though it 
would certainly be entirely feasible to 
heat a brooder by the use of the electric 
current. The objection to these would 
be the cost of current, as all electrically 
heated appliances use a large amount of 
current. There are portable electric 
stoves that might be installed in brooders, 
and which may be purchased from any 
dealer in electrical supplies, and there 
may be some especially adapted to heat¬ 
ing brooders. Unless one has exception¬ 
ally cheap electric service, however, I 
doubt the feasibility of using electrically 
heated brooders where economy in opera¬ 
tion is any object. m. b. d.
