Chickens: Brown or Black Layers?
#5
(11-26-2014, 08:18 PM)Henlus Wrote: Blacks lay larger eggs than browns. But blacks are more affected by heat when it's hot (black color attracts heat). Blacks start laying at a later age than browns and finally, blacks lay for a longer period of time than browns.

However, browns are more profitable to raise because they lay larger number of eggs in a shorter period of time and so, they consume less feed per dozen eggs laid.

Your comparative analysis did not cove the susceptibility to disaeses, FCR, etc.
