Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Incubation, Natural and Artificial: With Illustrations and Descriptions of Incubators, Modes of Constructing Brooders, and the Best Methods of Rearing Chickens Artificially HE word incubate was formerly used in a more limi Tted sense than it is at the present time. Nine people out of ten will say that incubation is hatching, and ask If it is not hatching, what is it? It appears that, strictly speaking, the sitting on eggs for the purpose of furnishing heat is incubation; not the mere hatching. But the word has been appropriated as the best to express the whole Operation of sitting on eggs, or giving them the required heat to effect the hatching, whether in the natu ral way, by the hen, goose, turkey, etc., or by the use of contrivances that furnish artificial heat with boxes, drawers, lamps and regulators. A word must in the long run be made to answer the purpose of those who use it, even if the' Latin derivation is ignored. Words get their meaning changed or extended, in time. Man invents some new method, and uses an Old word to express his idea. When the novice desires to learn all that can be learned about incubation he may well commence at the beginning and consider the best methods pf obtaining eggs that will hatch when placed under favorable conditions.4 [nc uba tion.

This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sixteen Years' Experience in Artificial Poultry-Raising I soon found, however, that the difficulty did not consist so much in generating the heat as in controlling it. The regulating apparatus consisted of a glass syphon, some two feet long filled partly with alcohol and partly with mercury; the alcohol being inside of the machine and the mercury outside. In this mercury was inserted a wired cork. The heat was expected to expand the alcohol, force up the mercury and raise the cork. Now as this cork was attached by a small wire to the ventilator and by a second wire to a cut-off on the lamp and worked simultaneously on both, the least expansion or contraction of the alcohol by heat or cold was expected to control the heat in the egg chamber. But unfortunately the alcohol was placed in the extreme bot tom of the machine, where there was the least heat, and the eggs in the top where there was the most heat, so that, as the heat ih creased the eggs got the benefit of it first and the liquor after wards, the damage was done before the remedy was provided.

Use enough of the plaster of paris to absorb the liquid and no more. Spread the resulting brownish powder on sheets of paper to dry and then store away in covered cans.

Book Synopsis Natural and Artificial Incubation and Brooding (Classic Reprint) by : John Ridge Terry
Download or read book Natural and Artificial Incubation and Brooding (Classic Reprint) written by John Ridge Terry and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural and Artificial Incubation and Brooding This bulletin has been prepared with the Idea of helping, If possible, those already in the poultry business, both large and small breeders, who have, perhaps, experienced some difficulty In the hatching or brooding branch of their work, and those without experience who intend starting to this branch of agriculture. The Essential of Successful Incubation. The most common cause of poor results or failure in incubation is the use of eggs of low vitality. Successful incubation begins long before the eggs are laid. The eggs must be from stock of high vitality that have never been forced; that are fed all the green food they will eat, and some form of animal food as well as grain. While fowls will sometimes lay a goodly number of eggs upon a grain diet, yet the eggs are oftentimes lacking in those food elements that the embryo requires, and they often hatch poorly, and those chicks that do hatch will be of impaired vitality, very difficult to raise. The vitality of the breeding stock, food or housing, and the range should be carefully looked after, as the neglect of any one of these factors will impair the vitality of the stock; consequently the eggs will not give good results with either incubator or hen. Vigorous Breeding Stock Necessary For Successful Incubation. The Male. Care should be exercised in the selection of the male, since his influence in the flock is so great. He should be fully matured and well developed, though not too heavy. Medium-sized male birds give good results when mated to hens of good proportions. That he be a sound bird constitutionally is of vital import. His head should give every evidence of masculinity, and should be of good size and of symmetrical proportions. A bright eye and a rather short, stout beak are other requisites. The body should present a symmetrical appearance, being filled out and carried well on stout legs of medium length, set well apart. In general, he should be active, a bird of quality, and one possessed of abundance of vitality and vigour. The Female. The above general characteristics may also be applied to the female. A two-year-old, a yearling hen, or a well-grown, well-developed, and fully-matured pullet may be used, but only when absolutely necessary. Many times the vigour of the flock has been greatly reduced by breeding from pullets. In some places where the raising of poultry is the main industry, the size of the fowls as well as the eggs has been reduced in just this way. Breeders are beginning to realize the necessity of breeding from fully matured, well-developed fowls if vitality, vigour, and prolificacy are to be maintained year after year. Indications as noted in the male will suffice to differentiate the desirable from the undesirable type. Generally speaking, about ten or fifteen females is considered a sufficient number for one male of the general-purpose breeds, such as Rocks, Wyandottes, Orpingtons, and Reds, and from fifteen to twenty for the Mediterranean breeds, as Leghorns and Anconas. The exact number of birds per male in either class depends greatly upon the vigour and constitution of the particular male bird used.

This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philo System of Progressive Poultry Keeping Our experience in poultry keeping dates back over a period of thirty years, and the mistakes made during that time, if properly explained, would fill a book much larger than this one. While many of our mistakes were expensive and discouraging, we were determined to win out, and as the failures came, we had the opportunity to study the causes, and again start from the foundation to overcome the difficulties. Many times the discoveries were surprising to us, as they will, no doubt, be to you, and were not put down as facts until each of them had been tested for at least five years, and many of them much longer. We have learned that artificial heat supplied to chickens is not only unnecessary, but better poultry may be raised without it. The average ordinary wood brooder is too complicated, expensive, and there is too much danger of chilling, overheating, or burning the chickens. When they come into this world they are supplied with an abundance of heat and all we have to do is to retain it. When green cut bone is fed liberally to breeding stock, good eggs from which to hatch strong chickens are not obtained, neither are the eggs likely to be fertile. The best two pound broilers can be raised when confined to a space of one square foot, when there are not too many in the flock. Pullets may be properly matured in a space of one and a half square feet, and a laying hen will do her best when given three square feet of Space. While it is generally. Understood that the largest egg yields from laying hens are obtained from the smallest flocks, the system is not in general use. It is not uncommon to get six eggs from six hens in a flock seven consecutive days. To get sixty eggs from sixty hens in a flock, one day in a year is hardly possible, and, as far as our knowledge goes, is not on record. Sixty hens properly bred and kept in ten colony coops will lay sixty eggs per day many days in the year, and at least twenty - five per cent. More eggs than the flock containing sixty hens. When chicks do their best they must also be kept in small flocks. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Incubation, Natural and Artificial: With Diagrams and Description of Eggs in Various Stages of Incubation, Description of Incubators and Rearers, Also Notes on Breeding Stock and Feeding and Rearing Chickens In these pages an attempt has been made to treat, as fully as possible, the subject of incubation, natural and artificial, to explain the physical laws bearing thereon, to discuss the principles and conditions of Nature's method, to see wherein, and to what extent, those principles are applicable to the attificial method, and to endeavour to show the various influences that may affect, either beneficiallv or deleteri-ously, the embryonic development of the chick in its different stages. Although artificial incubation is not new, it is only in recent vears that it has come into prominence, and there are, as yet, considerable conjecture and uncertainty concerning the causes of success or failure. If this book throws any light upon the subject, or assists the amateur incubator-operator to secure better results, or in any way hastens the day when the artificial method will, to the advantage of all concerned, entirely supersede the natural one, its mission will have been fulfilled.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Modern Farm Hen A few farmers have recognized the fine profit to be made from the production of high-class market eggs and the sale of hatching eggs and baby chicks in the breeding season. They have laid out the farm poultry work so that it can be efficiently handled in connection with gen eral farming. And they are making good money. The thought has been with the author for some years that the methods used by these progressive men and women, if placed in a form accessible to other farmers, should do much towards elevating the general standard of the farm hen and would make farm poultry generally more profitable. The result has been the bringing together of this book which is written entirely for farmers and is based upon the experience and the methods of actual farmers. It deals only from the practical standpoint, keeping ever in mind the units and the conditions best adapted for average farm conditions. It attempts to reduce into a formula, as much as possible, every step along the road to poultry success. It should answer many of the questions which people are constantly raising as to the possibilities in poultry for the farmer. It will answer questions of methods, procedure and means. It exists for no other purpose. Grateful acknowledgment is made to Dante M. Pierce, who has made this work possible.
