FEED HELPS YOUR HENS IN MOLTING During the next three mouths, i the old hens should be fed so that I they will molt quickly. Eggs will I be high in price this fall and w.n --1 ter and we should feed the flock ■ so as to obtain every possible egg, ! suggests D. 11. Hall, Extension Poul try Husbandman. The molt is a natural thing and ■the hen must be allowed time enough for it. We can help them through the molting stage ,by feed ing. The mash feeds are very bene ficial in growing featheTs, there fore, these hens should have all the mash they want. A pound of sul phur added to each one hurulrekl pounds of mash will also aid the hens in growing new feathers. Sul phur is also a mild tunic and : .ds in keeping the hen’s body in con 1 i dition. During the molting period , the i liens need a large amount of grain feed for the upkeep of the oody. The molt is a severe drain on the hen and a good strong body, with ; plenty of extra energy should l.e I kept by the hen. The hen is also i laying up surplus energy for next year’s laying. The best feed, care, □nd attention should be given them at this time. It will always pay you -to send your hens to roost with a i full craw each night.
