520 3 _aThis study was conducted at R. F. commercial hatchery farm in Tagaytay City. Its purpose was to deter-mine and to gather information about the management practices employed in the hatchery form for possible guidance and reference for those who may like to engage in this business. The farm occupies a total area of 2/3 of a hectare and had an average monthly output of 230,000 chicks. The strain produce were all Peterson broilers. One, office five setter machines and fifteen hatcher machines were the facilities in the hatchery. The project was run by one farm manager, two supervisors, three clerks, nineteen workers and three security guards The hatchery farm used a chick master incubator having a capacity of 74,000 eggs with an average hatch of 85 percent for every setting. Eggs were stored in a room with a temperature of 65 to 70°F for two to four days before setting in the incubator. _Before the eggs were set in the incubator they were treated through fumigation process using formaldehyde powder with 90 percent purity and 38.to 40 percent potassium permanganate. Candling was usually done on the seventh day and fourteenth day of incubation. After 18th day or 19th day of incubation, the eggs were transfered from the incubator to the hatchery where they were kept for another six hours in the hatchery. The incubators were disinfected after every hatching time. No disease had been observed in the hatchery. Antibiotics such as terramycin injectible were given intramascularly to chicks to make them resistant against pneumonia. After sexing and vaccinating, the chicks were delivered either to the breeding farms owned by the corporation, to the contract buyers or to contract growers. The chicks were sold by the hundreds with an extra four percent-per hundred given free to the buyer. Except for the occasional breaking of eggs at setting, no serious problem was met in the hatchery.
