I just put my eggs on lockdown 24 eggs first hatch of my new Octagon 20 advanced .When I candled I only had 12 living chicks 6 Bielefelders and 6 Cream Legbars. my last hatch I had only 10 out of 39 non fertile mixed breeds.
Each pen has 1 roo and 6 hens I have observed both roos mating and scratches on the hens backs.
The non fertile eggs looked as fresh as the day they were laid no blood or embryo development.
I was wondering if there is any feed or supplements I can give to increase the fertility of my roosters
I know commercial producers of hatching eggs feed different diets to hens and roos. the roo feeder is higher up then the hens feeder Is this practice to increase his fertility.
Have a nice nite
