This book offers a summary of the research and development undertaken by the author in the field of poultry breeding over a period of years. The author began by testing hens to establish a foundation breeding stock and then used the best males from this group to breed with the highest-yielding hens of the following year. Through this process, the author was able to increase egg production in their flock over a number of years. The book includes information on the author's breeding methods, housing, and feeding practices, as well as detailed pedigrees for the registered males and females in their breeding program. It also includes information on the sizes of flocks and individual floor spaces, as well as feeding techniques.
