! debeakrd chick: for broiler produc-
I tion has become in inerca." mgly
| popular practice among poultry-
: i;k n. says Ben Wormeh, extension
j poultry husbandman.
Chief advantages of debeaki: g
I are preventing of feather picking
and cannibalism among chickens
and turkeys. Live market grade of
Jcitvaked chicks L-. snijiilficafitly
| better due to more complete fca-
! Hiein g, and cxjierimental evidence
, indicated that dnbeaked chicks
j tend to product a pound of gain for
| less fet’d than nmi-beaked bird' .
Day old clucks are usually de-
beaked by the block method, sear-
ing of 1 1 3 both top and bottom
I beak. Dabeakmg of adult birds con-
sists of removing 1 3 of the upper
beak with knife or a hot electric
j blade which cartcrizcs the area.
When debeaking is correctly done
the only real discomfort is due to
extra handling, .says Wormeh The
on* ter beak i the same type of
material a-, horn or hoof, and care-
ful removal d'>< s not produce pain
I! laying hens are carefully handl-
ed during debeaking, egg produc*
