Abstract

Pelleted and mash feed were provided in each of two trials. In the first trial, it was noted that the pullets did not eat the feed that was offered in pellet form. Type of beak trimming appeared to be involved in lowering feed intake. The second trial demonstrated that pullets with either the top beak or both beaks trimmed (block cut) approximately 2 mm from the nostril when offered pellets or mash did not eat feed in pellet form as readily as that in mash form.
