THE  HENYARD 
Early  Molt;  Grain  Ration 
I  am  interested  in  the  poultry  business, 
but  am  not  getting  very  good  results.  We 
have  about  75  Leghorn  hens,  but  they 
have  stopped  laying  nearly  altogether. 
►Some  of  them  are  molting.  It  seems 
rather  early  for  them  to  molt.  Do  they 
only  molt  once  a  year,  or  will  a  change 
in  feed  cause  a  molt  any  time?  Will 
you  give  me  a  good  grain  and  mash  ra¬ 
tion,  also  how  much  feed  100  hens  re¬ 
quire  a  day?  How  often  should  they 
be  fed?  WThat  do  you  think  the  future 
for  the  poultry  business?  I  have  read 
articles  that  say  there  never  will  be  an 
over-production  of  eggs  and  others  that 
say  their  will  soon  be  an  over  produc¬ 
tion.  Do  you  think  it  advisable  to  breed 
pullets  hatched  May  1  next  April? 
Pennsylvania.  m.  j.  n. 
The  natural  molting  season  for  hens  is 
from  midsummer  to  early  Winter,  though 
good  layers  do  not  molt  until  late  in  Sum¬ 
mer  or  in  the  Fall.  An  early  molter  that 
has  stopped  laying  is  idling  during  a 
considerable  portion  of  her  laying  sea¬ 
son,  and,  consequently  cannot  make  a 
good  year’s  record.  Molting  may  be 
brought  about  out  of  season  by  anything 
that  upsets  a  hen’s  habits;  a  sudden 
change  in  composition  or  method  of 
feeding,  moving  to  new  quarters,  or 
other  disturbance  may  cause  layers  to 
cease  production  and  go  into  a  partial 
molt.  For  this  reason,  all  changes  in  the 
poultry  yard  should  be  made  gradually 
and,  as  far  as  possible,  between  laying 
periods. 
A  good  whole  grain  mixture  should 
contain  50  per  cent  or  more  of  corn  or 
wheat,  and  the  balance  in  whatever 
whole  grains  are  available,  oats,  barley 
and  rye,  however,  are  not  liked  as  well 
as  other  grains  by  most  fowls  and  can¬ 
not  be  fed  in  as  large  quantity.  The 
basis  of  a  laying  mash  is  cornmeal  and 
the  wheat  by-products,  middlings  and 
bran.  To  these  are  added  other  ground 
grains  and  meat  or  fish  scraps.  A  pop¬ 
ular  mixture  is  made  up  of  equal  parts 
by  weight  of  cornmeal,  wheat  bran,  mid¬ 
dlings,  ground  oats  and  beef  scrap.  A 
sixth  part  of  gluten  feed  added  to  this  is 
liked  by  many  poultrymen.  This,  or  other 
mash  is  usually  kept  before  the  flock,  dry, 
all  the  time,  and  about  8  to  10  quarts 
of  the  mixed  grain  per  100  birds  are  fed 
in  the  litter  night  and  morning,  perhaps 
a  third  of  the  amount  being  given  in  the 
morning  and  the  balance  at  night.  AY  bole 
grain  should  be  fed  lightly  in  the  morn¬ 
ing  to  induce  consumption  of  the  dry 
mash  through  the  day,  and  all  that  will 
be  cleaned  up  should  be  fed  the  last 
thing  at  night.  This  makes  two  feedings 
of  grain  per  day,  with  dry  mash  always 
before  the  fowls. 
No  one  knows  anything  about  the  fu¬ 
ture  of  the  poultry  business,  and  you 
may  as  well  do  your  own  guessing.  It 
can  either  be  better  or  worse,  and  your 
chances  of  making  an  accurate  guess  are 
50  per  cent.  This  should  satisfy  any  one 
who  wishes  to  gamble  upon  the  unknown 
future. 
If  these  pullets  are  well  developed,  of 
good  type,  strong  and  vigorous,  they  may 
be  safely  used  in  the  breeding  pen, 
though  old  fowls  that  have  demonstra 
good  laying  ability  over  a  term  of  several 
years  are  to  .be  preferred.  M.  b.  d. 
Corrugated  Steel  Henhouse 
I  would  like  to  build  a  temporary  hen¬ 
house  of  shed  type,  and  as  lumber  is  hard 
to  get  would  like  your  opinion  as  to 
whether  it  would  be  advisable  to  build 
one  of  corrugated  sheet  steel.  Would 
later  turn  this  into  a  shed.  The  building 
would  be  about  20  by  20.  E.  S.  w. 
Eldred,  Pa. 
Corrugated  metal  does  not  make  good 
walls  and  roofs  for  poultry-houses,  be¬ 
cause  of  the  ease  with  which  it  trans¬ 
mits  heat.  If  you  have  ever  been  in¬ 
side  of  a  metal  storehouse  while  the  Sum¬ 
mer  sun  was  shining,  you  can  appreciate 
the  conditions  under  which  fowls  would 
have  to  live  if  confined  to  such  a  build¬ 
ing  in  warm  weather.  Interior  warmth 
would  be  as  quickly  dissipated  in  AVinter 
and  the  iron  walls  would  frequently  be 
covered  with  condensed  moisture  in  the 
form  of  frost.  If  such  walls  and  roof 
could  be  insulated  by  some  such  material 
as  straw,  I  presume  that  they  would  be 
satisfactory.  It  might  be  practicable  fo 
nail  corrugated  sheeting  to  the  outside  of 
studs,  wire  poultry  netting  to  the  inside, 
and  pack  space  between  with  straw  or 
hay.  I  have  never  seen  this-  tried,  but, 
from  the  standpoints  of  warmth  and  com¬ 
fort,  should  expect  such  a  building  to  be 
satisfactory.  It  would  be  at  least  inex¬ 
pensive  as  an  experiment.  M.  b.  d.

Hen  With  Sore  Foot 
I  have  a  Leghorn  hen  which  has  a 
very  bad  foot.  One  day  I  noticed  that 
she  had  a  small  swelling  on  the  middle 
toe.  A  few  days  later  I  noticed  the  whole 
foot  was  swollen  so  that  she  could  just 
limp.  What  is  the  cause  and  preven¬ 
tion?  s.  s. 
Probably  an  abscess  resulting  from  in¬ 
fection  through  an  abrasion  of  the  skin 
of  the  foot.  Hens  scratch  a  good  deal 
with  their  feet  and  are  apt  to  bruise  or 
wound  them  and  get  corns,  bunions,  ab¬ 
scesses,  etc.  Place  this  hen  in  a  clean 
pen  or  run  and.  if  the  swelling  does  not 
subside  and  shows  by  a  soft  fluctuation 
when  pressed  that  there  is  fluid  inside, 
open  the  abscess  with  a  clean  blade  and 
allow  the  pus  to  be  discharged.
