* No recommendations can be made due to lack of capacity for enough roughage to maintain the rumen while feeding enough concentrate for production.
1. If native grasses, such as Sourgrass or Antigua are used, increase the amount of concentrate by 4 lbs for any level of milk production.
2. For every 4 tbs of wet Brewers Grain fed decrease the amount of concentrate by 1 lb. for any level of milk production.

The feed consumption, live weight and conservations figures
shown above are not guaranteed.
They are merely suggested goals
Broiler Growing Requirements
| Floor Space |
Place 11 - 18 birds per square metre ( 0.6 - 1.0
sq. ft. per bird) depending on size of bird to be grown |
| Waterer Requirements |
Provide 154 litre (1 gal.) chick founts per 1,000
chicks for the first two weeks. Thereafter
2.0 cm. (3/4") per bird for automatic trough type. Allow one bell type for 100 birds. |
| Feeder Space |
The first week, one feeder lid (plastic or
corrugated) per 100 chicks. Thereafter, provide sufficient trough type
feeder per 12 birds per 30 cm. (1 foot) calculating both sides of trough. For pan or tube type feeders, allow 50 - 60 birds per pan. |
| Brooder Space |
Approximately 500 to 1,000 chicks per hover. Where central heating systems are used, allow 22 birds per square
metre or .5 square feet per chick within brooding area. |
| Brooder Temperature |
32oC - 35oC (90oF
- 95oF) initially. Reduce
approximately 3.0oC (5oF) per week to normal
temperature. |
| Brooder Guards |
Approximately 45 cm. (18") high, placed 61 -
152 cm. (24 - 60") from
hover edge depending on type of brooder and season of the year. Corrugated
cardboard, masonite or hardwood cloth 1.3 cm. (1/2") mesh are
normally used. |
| Litter |
When replacing, use clean, dry, absorbent litter,
free of mould. Maintain good litter
conditions. Spread new litter 5 cm. (2") deep. |
| Ventilation |
Provide adequate air movement to maintain bird
comfort and good litter conditions |
