Breeds for Production
of White-Shelled Eggs
Poultry of ti e Mediterranean or eg*
breeds are best milted for production
of white-shelled eggs. Representatives
of this class are bred Inrgely for the
production of eggs rather than for meat
production. Among the popular breeds
of this class are: Leghorn. Minorca,
Ancona and Andalusian. One of th®
outstanding characteristics of the egg
breeds is the fact that they are classed
„h nonsitters. That Is. as a rule they
do not become broody and hatch their
eggs. When fowls of this eloss ar®
kept, artificial Incubation and brooding
are usually employed.
Oyster Shells Are Good
to Form Shells of Eggs
Ordinarily, the hen does not con-
sume enough time to form the shell*
of egga If she is laying abundantly un-
less something besides the ordinary
grain feeds Is accessible to her. Oy-
ster shells are very goisl for this pur
pose. A box of crushed shells may he
placed before the fowls, allowing them
to cat Ht will. Old mortar and tine
gravel are also useful In supply Inf
