How many do you think I will need to hatch next year? They wont be old enough till late in the year. I got a late start in hatching. Maybe I should skip a year and wait till they are older.thank you my friend .
50 ;70 is a great number to work deep any line
if you working with a pair . need to hatch 40/50 chicks
if you working with trio .you need to hatch about 30/35 chicks by hen
if you working with a quad .you ll be hatching 20/25 chicks by hen .
those numbers are needed to build a line from scratch . when the line is established ,than you don t need a high number to maintain it .
