This week Modern Poultry marks its second year of publishing practical, science-based editorial content focused solely on live production.
“To commemorate our second anniversary, we’re featuring the two most popular articles from each of our first 2 years,” said Carly Feeks, founder and publisher.
“The broad range of topics — immunosuppression, avian pathogenic E. coli, chick thermal environment and advances in layer genetics — reflects our commitment to covering all new developments related to live production.”

“Readers keep telling us they like our focus on live production, as well as our clean, calm, clutter-free editorial environment that’s conducive to learning and sharing,” Feeks said.
