Weight Gain Test Ends
By Manny Pinol
The weight gain test which we conducted on a group of Manok PiNoy cockerels hatched August and September this year has ended today with one Black Manok PiNoy cockerel registering an amazing 1.440 kilo weight in 90 days in the free range.
His full brother weighed 1.310 kilos, 130 lighter than the heaviest cockerel but still outstanding considering that all of them were raised in the free range.
The 12 cockerels which we included in the final test registered an average of 390 grams weight gained in the last 15 days after they were dewormed and given feeds ad libitum.
It must be emphasized that the feeds used on these cockerels were mainly self-formulated and mixed feeds consisting of materials available in Kidapawan City and North Cotabato where the test was conducted.
With the successful weight test on this new strain of backyard chicken raised in the free range, the focus will now be on the egg laying capabilities of the Manok PiNoy hens.
We have already started the test and the results will be known one year from now.

‘MANOK PiNOY’ BREEDING STAGS
READY FOR SHARING THIS MONTH
By Manny Pinol
Starting this month, Braveheart Farms will be sharing some select breeding stags of the new backyard poultry strain which I developed, the “Manok PiNoy.”
The decision to offer to other backyard poultry raisers these breeding stags came following insistent and persistent requests from people interested to introduce the “Manok PiNoy” blood to their flock.
These breeding stags could be used in upgrading and will definitely contribute to improving the size and body conformation of existing backyard chicken flock.
The number of the stags which I will share with other backyard poultry raisers will be limited because I will also be using some of them in my breeding program.
Absolutely, there will be no breeding pullets available so please do not bother to ask.
The breeding stags available for sharing will come in Red, Black and a few Barred Doms.
All of them are just three months old and weigh at least 1.2 kilos in an empty crop.
Since we will be shipping these fowls through the Davao City airport, we will not accept orders of less than a pair of these stags.
Please send me a private message for the prices and other details.
