Housing - Floor Space
• Start the birds in the area in which they will grow and live
• Do not reduce floor space as bird numbers decrease:– Culling – Mortality
![Page 9: Producing Broilers & Turkeys For Show 2009 Show VIP By: Keith Staggs Show Poultry Ambassador.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062404/5519e7405503469c0b8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Floor Space - Broilers
• 2 ft.2 per chick at one day of age
• Culling allows increase in square footage
• 2 ft.2 = 15 ft.2 per bird at 4 Weeks of age
![Page 10: Producing Broilers & Turkeys For Show 2009 Show VIP By: Keith Staggs Show Poultry Ambassador.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062404/5519e7405503469c0b8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Floor Space - Turkeys
• Flock = 2 ft.2 1 Day to 4 Weeks
• Flock = 6 ft.2 4 to 8 Weeks
• Hens = 10 ft.2 8 Weeks to Show
• Toms = 15 ft.2 8 Weeks to Show

![Page 44: Producing Broilers & Turkeys For Show 2009 Show VIP By: Keith Staggs Show Poultry Ambassador.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062404/5519e7405503469c0b8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Vitamins & Electrolytes Antibiotics
• They have a specific purpose– V & E – Hydration of birds & vitamin
Supplement
– Antibiotics – treat bacterial infection
• If the condition noted above is not present – these products are not needed
• Preventative measure for these products are no benefit to the bird!
![Page 45: Producing Broilers & Turkeys For Show 2009 Show VIP By: Keith Staggs Show Poultry Ambassador.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062404/5519e7405503469c0b8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Physical Stimulation
• Several times per day– Adjust your schedule
• No strenuous activity– Walk to feed and water – No Laps around house!!
• Minimize Stress– Too much excitability causes mortality
![Page 46: Producing Broilers & Turkeys For Show 2009 Show VIP By: Keith Staggs Show Poultry Ambassador.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062404/5519e7405503469c0b8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
House Clean-outs
• No Defined Schedule– Bird density determines clean-out frequency
• Monitor Ammonia and Air Quality– If you smell Ammonia upon entering house –
MAKE ADJUSTMENTS
• Maintain Dry Litter– Wet litter encourages Ammonia, Bugs, Bacteria,
etc.

Culling
• WHY?
– Remove Unthrifty Birds

![Page 49: Producing Broilers & Turkeys For Show 2009 Show VIP By: Keith Staggs Show Poultry Ambassador.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062404/5519e7405503469c0b8b45bb/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Culling
• How??– Look for same qualities/characteristics
that you would when selecting the pen for show!
• Length of Breast
• Width of Breast
• Depth of Body
• Taper of Breast Muscle
