[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1822104, member: 24565"] The picture might be correct. The broiler industry has pressed growth and feed conversion. The broilers are also managed in hours of light per day and other known ways to increase growth. Even in my time, the time (days) it takes a broiler to get to market size is much less. I talked to a poultry geneticist one time and he said that there is a fractional increase in growth and decrease in time to harvest on an annual basis. What cattle folks ought to take note of in that picture is what the chase for carcass and feed conversion does to an animal. [/QUOTE]
