The Arbor Acres Plus
Overview
The Arbor Acres Plus is available in two types, one which produces
sexable broilers and one which produces all fast-feathering
broilers. The sexable-type produces fast-feathering female broilers
and slow-feathering male broilers. This allows the broilers to
be sexed in the hatchery by evaluating feather development
differences.
Growing male and female broilers separately allows companies to
capitalize on the natural growth and developmental differences
between the sexes and tailor their nutritional programs. It also
enables different requirements for broilers within the same market
to be met more efficiently [e.g. fast-feathering females can be
grown to supply small birds (rotisserie) and males for larger birds
(de-boning)]. Sex-separate rearing also improves body-weight
uniformity of flocks for the processing plant.
The non-sexable type produces all fast-feathering broilers. They
cannot be sexed in the hatchery by evaluating the feathers
because males and females grow their feathers at the same rate.
This early feather coverage helps protect skin from damage
leading to improved carcass quality and grade in the processing
plant.
Both types will have similar growth, feed conversion and meat
yield characteristics. The nutritional requirements for the broilers
will also be the same.
The objectives are presented in two sections to reflect the global
nature of the publication. Section g contains the performance
data in metric measurement and Section lb contains imperial
measurement.
This supplement should be used with the Arbor Acres Broiler
Manual.
For further information on managing Arbor Acres broilers, please
consult your local Technical Services Manager or contact the
Technical Services Department.
