This week your hosts will discuss Poultry Litter management.
Timely Tip: How Litter is managed before, during, and after each flock is a key factor for improved broiler performance, health and welfare. Successful growers know that good litter management during and between flocks is critical. You are already behind if you wait until a new flock of chicks arrives to begin a litter management program. It will likely be the next flock before you and your birds can benefit from your efforts.
