Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chicks: Hatching and Rearing; A Manual of Dependable Instruction in Incubating, Brooding, Feeding, Housing and Developing Winners and Layers; Fattening, Killing and Marketing Broilers and Roasting Chickens Success in hatching and rearing the chicks is absolutely necessary for profitable poultry keeping. The fancier, the egg farmer and the market poulterer must produce every year a certain greater or less number of chickens. The fancier must have cockerels and pullets for exhibition and sale, the egg man must have pullets to lay, the poulterer must have tender broilers and roasters for his trade and all must replace the stock sold, or aged beyond its usefulness. This young stock is required to be good or it will not satisfactorily and profitably serve its various purposes; the mere fact that it has been brought from the shell and made to live until it is time to market it, or to maturity, as the case may be, is no guaranty that it will sooner or later return a fair rate of interest on its cost. Thousands of chicks are hatched each year and placed in brooders, which, either because of weakness in the parent stock or improper incubation, are practically worthless, so far as their ability to make good growth and development is concerned. Other thousands which leave the shell strong and healthy are spoiled in the rearing, so that they reach the profit-turning age in such condition that they are unfit for the purposes of their owners. The only chick that is profitable is the one well hatched and well reared, so that it possesses health and vigor. This indicates the necessity of proper incubation, healthful brooding, correct feeding and intelligent care.
