Introduction
Parent Stock chicks, a crucial element of poultry farming, undergo weekly weight monitoring to ensure optimal performance. This practice is based on the principles outlined in the Aviagen management handbook. However, the process behind creating the step-by-step management graph is often overlooked. In this article, we will delve into the methodology of developing these graphs and understand their significance in raising healthy Parent Stock chicks.
Unveiling the Process of Graph Creation
To construct the Parent Stock Chick Management graph, the following steps are followed:
Step 1: Data Collection
The first step involves gathering data related to body weight, weekly gain, and growth rate of the Parent Stock chicks.
Step 2: Graph Generation
Using the collected data, a graph is generated. The graph visually represents the growth pattern of the Parent Stock chicks over time.

Graph Analysis
Graphs showing the growth of parent stock chicks have common characteristics. Look at the graph and ask questions.
Example: Need for weight separation?
Look at the growth rate graph. Growth will make a big difference even if it is one day late. So weight separation is necessary. And ask the question again. When would be the best time.
Ask questions while looking at the graph that we've created in the same way as above.
Harnessing the Power of Data
In our next installment, we will expand on the existing graph by integrating growth and management data from the Aviagen management handbook. This comprehensive approach enhances our understanding and allows for more informed management practices.
