Broiler chickens have the genetic potential for significant weight gain over a very short period of time. Weighing just 42g at hatch, broilers can achieve a weight of 2,800g within the next 42 days, which is an average daily growth rate of 66g. This growth rate is particular significant within the first seven days, as the bird has the potential to increase its bodyweight by 450 percent from day zero to day seven.
Along with weight gain, the modern broiler also has the potential for significant carcass conformation, particularly breast-muscle development. Breast-muscle yield depends on the number of muscle cells, and this number tends to be fixed within the chick’s first few days post hatch.

In order to achieve this proliferation, early nutrition in these first few days should not be underestimated, as it hugely determines the expression of the genetic potential of the chick. As well as this, environmental factors such as temperature and light should be carefully monitored, to ensure the maximum breast-muscle and weight gains are achieved.

10 key considerations for maximum milk yield

*Set Performance Goals*. Ruegg suggests that some of those goals should include zero antibiotic residues in milk, bulk tank somatic cell count (SCC) at least below 250,000 cells/mL, and obtaining individual cow SCC values to manage subclinical mastitis. Managing subclinical mastitis should focus on controlling new infections with a specific new subclinical infection rate goal of less than 5% per month.

*Rapidly Identify Problems*. Develop methods that monitor herd performance and the milking process that can detect problems, such as clinical mastitis, early on.
Milk Clean Cows. Dirty cows take longer to milk and reduce parlor throughput.

*Clean and groom stalls frequently.* Scrape or remove manure from alleyways and isles frequently. Develop and implement effective pre-dipping routines.

*Standardize Milking Routines*. Consistent milking routines are a key to quality milk production. Communicate and teach those routines to those who milk. Start by developing a written set of routines and work from that.

*Train Staff*. Spend time teaching, training, and periodically reviewing routines and milking procedures. Make sure employees understand them, which may mean developing some materials in a different language to help with the process.

*Maintain and Update Milking Systems*. High quality milk is dependent upon a properly functioning milking system. The system should be regularly evaluated and updated.

*Develop Treatment Protocols*. Treatment protocols define standard treatments for common diseases and injuries. Involve your veterinarian in developing these protocols. The judicious use of antibiotics is an important component of a veterinarian/client/patient/relationship (VCPR).

*Have a Mastitis Biosecurity Plan*. Keep your dairy cattle safe from contagious mastitis pathogens. Practice quarantine procedures for any purchased cattle, buy healthy cattle from healthy herds, and culture samples from the bulk tank when new, purchased cattle are entering the herd.

*Take Care of Dry Cows.* Provide spacious, clean, and dry environments for non-lactating cows. Do not group these cows near sick animals. Provide good nutritional programs.

*Use Appropriate Consultants.* Develop a team of people with expertise in various areas to help sort through complex issues and to help make informed decisions
