Do poultry farmers really count their chickens before they hatch?!


Question: No they don't. Whenever we put a batch of eggs in the incubator, only around half of them ever hatch. And some of them die when they're just a day or 2 old, or they don't hatch properly and so die in their shell. So we definitely don't count our chickens before they hatch.

hey they should because they are expectant

No. Not all eggs will hatch to be chickens and a farmer trying to count how many he will have will get a wrong answer and spend alot of wasted time doing so
