Poultry Winters May Slow Egg Production
This article notes a midwinter pause in hens egg output often caused by environmental factors. It advises poultrymen to heat laying houses and improve ventilation, and to stimulate appetite with diet variety, increased feeds, and warm forms of mash. Short 10 day periods of appetizers and conditioners can aid sluggish appetites and body functions.
Lighting and Feeding Practices for Laying Hens
The text notes that interval lighting can boost egg production and general vigor. It advises using reflector lights to illuminate floors and feed hoppers, or lanterns if electricity is unavailable. A drop in feed and water can sharply reduce production and may take six weeks to recover. watch for the first decline in feed consumption as a danger sign.
