Georgia Broiler

The Georgia-Light, a white
plumaged bird with some black
feathers in the neck and tail,
is the name to the new broiler,
according to Dr, R. S. Wheeler,
Chairman cf the College of
Agriculture Poultry Division.
The bread was developed by
Dr - Edmund Hoffman by selec-
tio n from the hybrid offspring
j 1 of mouth crosses Rock between and New Barred Hamp- Ply-
1 shires.
“When compared with pres-
ent broiler-type chickens”, Dr.
Wheeler explained, “the Georgia
Light has many advantages. Its
white feathers make it more
desirable for the dressing
plants because pin feathers and
the hair . like feathers on the
carcass are less conspicuous.”
Too if New Hampshire males
are crossed on Light females it
is possible to separate the male
an( f female chicks at the time
of hatching merely on the.
basis of color. Cockerels are
white in color and pullet chicks
af e red.
This makes it possible to grow
cockerels separate from pullets,
and this is an advantage be-
cause cockerels are ready for
market at 8 V 2 to 9 weeks of age,
.wo weeks earlier than pullets.
“Such a method of growing
