    The feeding density is too high. Most of the laying hens in China are cage-raised, and the density is generally too high in the breeding process. This has a great impact on the brooding and growth of laying hens, and seriously affects the egg production of laying hens.

    Poor ventilation. When the ventilation is not good, the chicken will be in a sub-healthy state. Chickens may experience symptoms such as watery eyes, runny nose, and listlessness.

    Being in this pathological state for a long time will definitely affect egg production. Poor lighting. Light has a great impact on the egg production of laying hens, and it takes 14 to 15 hours for laying hens during the peak laying period.

    In China, laying hens are mostly caged, which seriously affects the light time and intensity. We need to install lights in the house and fill them up when there is not enough or not enough lighting time.

    Increasing egg production depends on four factors: breed, feed, feeding management and biosecurity control.

    1.Raise high-quality and high-yielding laying hens. Foreign varieties include Roman and Blue Ocean, and domestic varieties include Nongda No. 3, Baijing series, Dawu Jinfeng, etc.

    If these breeds fully exploit their genetic potential, the number of eggs produced is about 300 per year, which is much higher than that of domestic or local chickens. It should be noted that if the chickens you buy from the breeder farm have quality problems, even high-producing hens will be seriously affected by the amount of eggs laid after production, such as late production, low egg production rate during peak periods, short laying periods, etc.

    2.Feed with high-quality feed. Good feed can fully meet the nutritional needs of high-yield laying hens, which can not only increase egg production, but also improve egg quality, and avoid deformed eggs such as soft-shell eggs, sand eggs, and bloodshot eggs.

    3.Fine feeding management. Give the chickens good care, proper temperature and humidity, clean drinking water, light and air quality up to standard, feed according to feeding standards, reduce stress on the chickens, and so on. The more careful care you take, the more helpful it is to get the most out of your chicken's egg production.

    4.There is a good biosecurity prevention and control system. It mainly includes the formulation of immunization procedures, decontamination procedures, disease prevention and control procedures, etc. Otherwise, chickens will suffer from a variety of diseases, which will not only lead to a decrease in egg production rates, but also a sharp increase in the mortality rate of chickens.

    Vitamin C supplementation: When the temperature of the house is 32, adding 60 mg of vitamin C per kilogram of feed (i.e. 60 grams per feed) can increase egg production by about 12% at 20 weeks of age. In addition, the vitamin C added to the Japanese diet in the high temperature season was tested, and the egg production rate of the test group was higher than that of the control group within 5 weeks.

    The hens that lay more eggs are: Bai Lai Tan Hang Chicken, Xinhan Xia Chicken.

    1. White Voyage Chicken

    Bailaihang chicken, a famous egg breed originating in Italy and widely distributed in the world, has been raised in China for decades. The body is small and delicate, with white and clinging plumage and a large bright red crown. It has early maturity, no nesting, high egg production and low feed consumption.

    The age of the first day of production is 140-150 days, and the average annual egg production is more than 220. Eggshell white.

    2. New Han Xia Chicken

    The New Han Xia Chicken was bred in New Han Xia in the United States and is a dual-purpose breed. The new Han Xia Chicken is a breed that has been bred for more than 30 years by selecting chickens with good physique, large egg production, large eggs and good meat quality from Luodao Red Chicken. The feathers are light-colored, single-crowned, and the eggshell is brown, and the average annual egg production is 180-200.

    Ways to make hens lay more eggs:

    1. Add soybean flour

    After the hen enters the egg laying period, adding soybean flour to the feed can increase the egg production, soybean powder belongs to the protein feed, which can play a fattening role after eating, and can effectively increase the egg production rate, but it is necessary to control the dosage, and the amount of balance will lead to over-fattening of laying hens, and the egg production rate will not rise but fall.

    2. Add rapeseed cake

    After the hen enters the laying period, you can add rapeseed cake to the feed, and the rapeseed cake also has protein content, mix it with the feed, which can reduce the cost of the feed, and it must be fully cooked when used.

    3. Feeding method

    Add the corresponding food in the chicken feed, fully mix and feed once a day in the morning and evening, increase the light time of the hen, maintain 16 hours of light every day, promote the normal secretion of hormones, ensure normal ovulation and egg production, and the eggs are easy to break when the light time is too low.

    The profit of raising 30 hens to lay eggs for a year requires a lot of consideration, including the cost of feeding, the price of eggs, regional differences, and so on.

    In general, each hen can lay 250-300 eggs per year. If calculated according to the average selling price of each egg, the annual egg income of each hen is about 75-90 yuan. Therefore, the income of 30 hens laying eggs per year is about 2250-2700 yuan.

    However, in addition to the cost of feeding, the operating costs of raising chickens also include feed, vaccines, breeding equipment, chicken coop rent and other aspects. Therefore, the actual annual profit varies depending on various factors such as region, level of management, and the selling price of eggs.

    In short, the profit of raising 30 hens to lay eggs in a year needs to consider a variety of factors, and a careful analysis of the market demand, feed cost and chicken raising experience in the region can be carefully analyzed to arrive at an accurate income estimate.

    Please note the following:

    Hens that lay more eggs should be fed more nutritious mixed feed, and also fed some bone meal, shell meal and other mineral feed, plus some sand grains, and provide sufficient drinking water. Do not feed less than 3 times a day. Keep quiet around the coop and don't let the chickens be frightened.

    Chicken diseases are most likely to be prevalent in spring, so it is necessary to thoroughly disinfect the chicken coop and the surrounding activity places in spring to reduce the occurrence of diseases.

    In the hot summer, the chicken coop should be ventilated more, keep the air fresh, and give more drinking water. The chicken farm should build a pergola so that the chickens have a place to rest. Feed the chickens in the morning and evening when it is cooler. Add more soybean cakes, fish meal, etc. to the feed, and feed more green fodder.

    Young hens at the beginning of the autumn can be fed a concentrate feed that contains enough protein and is easy to digest. The old hens that change their feathers should be fed some germination feed, pumpkin and green fodder.

    In winter, the days are short, and artificial light must be replenished. Generally, a 25-watt light bulb is installed per square meter, and the best effect is about 3 hours after the sun sets and before dawn.

    Feed more concentrate in winter; Mix with hot water; Let the chickens drink warm water; Feed the concentrate once in the evening. In this way, the hen can also lay eggs in the winter.

    Keep quiet around the coop and don't let the chickens be frightened.

    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. Hehe, of course, the eggs given to the baby 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.
