    The 2013 Hatchery-Breeder Clinic will bring hatchery and breeder flock managers together to discuss the latest technology, equipment developments and industry trends. The annual clinic, sponsored by the U.S. Poultry & Egg Association, will be held July 9-10, at the Hyatt Regency Birmingham - The Wynfrey Hotel in Birmingham, Ala.
    "This year's program will provide essential tools and resources to help managers stay abreast of new developments that can assist them in their day-to-day duties, as well as highlight cost-saving innovations for running an efficient and effective hatchery-breeder operation," said program committee chairman Jack Patrick, Harrison Poultry Inc.
    Topics include: an agriculture stats review for hatcheries and breeders; cocci vaccine alternatives: pros and cons; chick mortality; biosecurity methods for hatcheries and breeders; disease update and prevention methods; hatching eggs: sanitation/handling/storage; and concurrent breakout sessions on related hatchery and breeder topics.
    The agenda was developed by a committee of hatchery-breeder specialists. Members of the committee are Richard Higgins, Perdue Farms Inc.; Nath Morris, Heritage Breeders; and Jack Patrick, Harrison Poultry Inc.
