What can t a hen do to lay eggs, how does a hen lay eggs

I grew up in the countryside and worked on chicken farms for a long time, so I know a lot about raising chickens.

There are many ways to control the egg production of laying hens in chicken farms, such as the regulation of temperature and light, the ratio of feed and the control of drinking water, etc., the most important is the use of hormones. Everyone understands the dangers of hormones, so I will not recommend them to you or introduce them to you.

There are also many other factors that affect egg production in chickens, such as the stress response of the animal. When chickens move from one environment to another, or when frightened, they reduce their feed intake, resulting in reduced egg production or even production stopping. The strength and duration of the stress response vary from individual to individual.

The hens caught more than 20 days ago should have disappeared if they had been carefully raised.

Another important reason that affects the egg production of hens is the age of the chickens. Hens in factory-raised conditions can reach peak egg production in less than 200 days, while free-range chickens in rural areas take more than 300 days to start laying eggs. Chicks raised in the spring of that year do not begin to lay eggs until the spring of the following year, stop production in the summer when it is hot, start to enter the peak egg production period after moulting in the autumn, and enter the elimination period in the autumn of the third year.

If you have brought hens from the countryside for three years or more, it is recommended that you cull them.

If you want to keep breeding, you need to pay attention to the temperature. The suitable temperature for hens to enter the laying period is around 24 degrees. It's now winter and the temperature is low.

Most of the local chickens in the countryside have stopped production, and the chicken farm adopts the method of heating in order to keep the hens from stopping production in winter, so that the temperature in the chicken house is kept at about 24 degrees. So you should also pay attention to the temperature of the chicken coop and not too low. If the temperature of the nest is too low, even feeding the hens with pro-production hormones will have little effect.

Of course, eggs given to babies can't have hormones.

Just feed the hens some rice, leftovers, and leaves that are discarded when choosing vegetables, nothing special. By the way, put a little sand next to the coop for them to eat, which will help them digest the food.

The hen lays eggs, which is the physiological function of the hen, and the way to prevent the hen from laying eggs is to disrupt the physiological function of the hen. For example, reducing the feed intake of the hens, or even starving the hens, so that the hens can not obtain the nutrients needed for egg production, and the hens will naturally not lay eggs.

Another example: through surgery, the ovaries of the hen are removed, and the hen cannot lay eggs, so she cannot lay eggs. In short, there are many ways to not let hens lay eggs.

One side of the hen's ovary degenerates, the other side of the ovary produces mature eggs through the bell at the front end of the fallopian tube into the fallopian tube, the fertilization process occurs at the upper end of the fallopian tube (the eggs we eat are not fertilized), the fertilized egg in the oviduct descending process, in turn by the fallopian tube wall secretion of protein, shell membrane and eggshell wrapping, the egg moves in the fallopian tube due to the movement of the tube wall muscle and rotates, wrapped in a protein layer, the two ends of the protein with the twisting of the potato plum and form a frenulum, that is, we open the raw egg, found the egg yolk at both ends of the white band.

The eggshell is 89% 97% calcium carbonate, with a small amount of salts and organic matter. Some eggs have colors and patterns that are produced by pigment cells in the lower end of the fallopian tube.

Hens do not need roosters to lay eggs, hens lay eggs is an ovulation phenomenon, even if there is no rooster can ovulate normally, but at this time the eggs can not hatch chicks, belongs to infertile eggs, breeding hens to choose a high terrain site, and provide corn kernels, rice bran, wheat, green cabbage leaves, animal offal and other food.

1. No

Hens don't need roosters to lay eggs. Eggs are actually eggs laid by hens, which are normal physiological phenomena, even if there is no rooster, they will ovulate normally, but the eggs laid at this time are infertile eggs and cannot reproduce, and the eggs laid after mating with roosters belong to fertilized eggs and can hatch chicks.

2. Breeding sites

Breeding hens should choose high woodland, hillsides or tea gardens, so as not to be too wet in the breeding site, affecting the growth of hens, and the breeding base should be covered with protective nets to avoid the invasion of natural enemies, and a chicken coop should be built in the corner to provide a place for hens to lay eggs.

3. Breeding methods

When breeding hens, in order to make them lay more eggs, it is necessary to provide the hens with high-protein and high-calcium foods such as fishmeal, bone meal, earthworms, and animal offal, so as to promote the formation of eggs, and also provide no less than 12 hours of light for the hens every day to supplement calcium, and maintain the ambient temperature at about 20 degrees to maintain the normal growth of the hens.
