EGG TYPE

Hatch of egg type chicks in Georgia during the week ended December 9 was 845,000--46 percent more than the previous week and 117 percent more than the comparable week last year. An estimated 1,142,000 eggs for the production of egg type chicks were set by Georgia hatcheries, 7 percent less than the previous week but 188 percent more than the comparable
week last year. In the five states that accounted for about 26 percent of the hatch of all egg type
chicks in the U.S. in 1977, hatchings during the week ended December 9 were up 11 percent and settings were up 20 percent from a year ago.
