The rooster makes the egg fertile egg makes the blood ring. You can help save the $15,000,000 lost from blood rings^by keeping the male bird from your flock after the hatchingseason is over. The rooster does not help the hens to lay. He merelyfertilizes the germ of the egg. The fertile germ in hot weatherquickly becomes a blood ring, which spoils the egg for foodand market. Summer heat has the same effect on fertile eggsas the hen or incubator. INFERTILE EGGS WILL NOT BECOME BLOOD RINGS. After the hatching season, cook, sell, or pen your hens not running with a male bird will produce infertileeggs—quality eggs that keep best and market best. RULES FOR HANDLING EGGS
