SOUTHERN HATCHERY, NORTH, S. C. 
“Why I Finally Took to Reds” 
{Continued from page 201) 
fowl which prevail at that time. I have 
a good many pullets that start laying in 
August and do not become broody before 
the next April or May. That is good 
enough for anybody. The other fault is 
the poor coloring. Being a comparatively 
new breed, the color is not well establish¬ 
ed, hence it is not unusual to find all 
shades of red, from light yellow to dark 
brown. 
Stand Up Under Pressure 
Reds will stand high-feeding better 
than the Rocks or Wyandottes. I have 
kept all three breeds together in the same 
pen and the feed that kept the Red 
shelling out the eggs all the time fatted 
the other two and made them useless. I 
account for this in the fact that the Red 
is more active that the other breeds and 
is able to assimulate and make use of 
more feed. It is true that my breed is a 
heavy feeder, but we must feed heavy if 
we expect a lot of eggs. 
The Red is particularly adapted to my 
kind of intensive poultry-keeping. I 
hatch early, get the birds laying at the 
earliest possible moment, rush them by 
artificial lighting, and cull rigidly all the 
next summer. Then, I pick out the best 
birds to save for a breeding flock the next 
spring. At the close of the hatching 
season, the older birds are all sold, as I 
believe I can get all the profit from them 
by the time they have been laying a year. 
The breeding flock is kept longer because 
of the fact that the pullets are not as 
reliable for this purpose as * the older 
hens. 
The Red seems to do equally well 
whether kept housed all the year or 
allowed their freedom. Other breeds I 
have had do not seem as well contended 
in the small quarters. 
As a chick the Red is sturdy and grows 
rapidly. Eggs show a high percentage of 
fertility and I have scarcely ever failed to 
get goods hatches and have raised a large 
proportion of the chicks to maturity. . . 
The Red will lay more eggs during the 
period of the fall moult than any breed 
I have ever kept, and this is something 
of an item when we have to keep over a 
flock of breeders every year. .All in all, 
the Single Comb Rhode Island Red is 
my favorite fowl for the farm.

POINTS I WATCH IN HATCH¬ 
ING AND RAISING CHICKS 
I ALWAYS pick out the largest eggs 
for setting. Any old eggs won’t 
bring out good chicks. When I set a hen 
I see that she has a comfortable nest. 
If the nest is not round, and it should be, 
the eggs are likely to be broken and then 
your eggs are lost. And every egg that 
is lost is a loss, it matters not what the } 7 
cost. So it pays to be careful with the 
nest and the hen should be where others 
can’t bother her or there will be another 
loss of broken eggs. 
If I set an incubator I make sure I tend 
to it. Naturally, if I neglect it, it will 
not hatch as it should. However, most 
incubators have directions with them. 
And if you follow them you will nearly 
always come out all right. Eggs should 
be turned night and morning regularly. 
When the chicks Begin hatching, I do 
not disturb them ’til all are hatched. 
I put a damp cloth inside so as to give 
moisture and prevent the egg shell from 
becoming too dry on the chick, as it will 
do if the heat is dry and the chick can’t 
help himself to get out. 
After the chicks are hatched I make 
sure to have the brooder ready to receive 
them. Eor the first feed, I put bran in 
the box or pen for the little fellows to 
eat and scratch in. I also feed them
