GLOBAL - The new Cobb Breeder Management Guide - following the style of the Cobb Broiler Guide launched last autumn - is now introduced for the Cobb family of products.![](https://cdn.globalagmedia.com/poultry/legacy/combined/cobblogo.gif)
The latest guide provides detailed husbandry information and advice applicable to all four Cobb breeds, with performance and management data specific to the Cobb 500, Cobb 700, Cobb Avian 34/43 and Cobb Avian 48 provided in separate, color-coded supplements.
The handy-size guide contains extended sections on nutrition and male management, while the supplements for each breed provide detailed data on growth and bodyweights in both dark-out and open-sided rearing environments and breeder performance targets through to 65 weeks of age.
"The breeder guides are designed to a similar format to the Cobb Broiler Management Guide which has been well received by customers worldwide," says Steve Iseler, director of marketing Cobb-Vantress Inc. "Separating the breed specific data from the more general advice makes it simple to keep customers up-to-date with the genetic progress and latest technical information on individual breeds."
The Cobb Breeder Management Guide forms part of a series of guides covering hatchery and broiler operations, as well as nutrition and quality assurance. Copies are available from your local Cobb representative, or by visiting www.cobb-vantress.com
