How to increase the egg production of Luhua chicken

As the king of native chickens in China, reed-flower chicken is a local breed with both meat and eggs, which has extremely high breeding value and economic benefits. However, the egg production of reed-flower chicken begins to decline in the breeding process. What is the reason for this? How to improve the egg production of the reed-flower chicken? Let's get to know each other.

1. Reasons for reduced egg production

1. Management aspects

Insufficient feeding or problems with feed formula, or poor quality of feed, may lead to a sudden drop in egg production or even no egg production. Daily lack of drinking water or unclean drinking water will also cause the reed-flower chickens to suddenly stop laying eggs. Suddenly, there will be noises during the laying process of the reed-flower chickens, such as firecrackers or strong blows, which will cause the chickens to be frightened and scattered everywhere. For the laying hens, it will stimulate the parameters, and the laying quantity will obviously decrease. When inoculating or deworming laying hens, they should not be too frightened, otherwise the egg production will decrease.

2. Environmental factors

Laying hens are sensitive to light, and a sudden decrease in light intensity or a sudden reduction in light duration will also cause a decrease in egg production. High temperature and heat in summer, cold and cold in winter, improper ventilation in chicken houses, resulting in cold or heat infestation of chickens, but also a decrease in egg production. If 5%-10% of laying hens are laid off at the same time, the egg production of the chicken flock will decrease greatly. This is a temporary increase in the number of chickens synchronized on the laying day, forming an illusion of a decrease in egg production rate. A history of acute infectious disease in laying hens may also lead to decreased egg production.

2. How to increase egg production

For the above caused by the decline in egg production, first of all from the feed, reed-flower chicken adaptability, tolerance of coarse feeding, so every day only need not corn, Kang bran green feed mixture can be, egg production period a concentrated feed mainly, green feed reduced to 35% can, at the same time in the egg production period to supply sufficient clean drinking water. During the laying period, it is necessary to increase the light duration appropriately, but it should not be too long, so as not to affect the normal pruning of the reed-flower chicken. The chicken house should maintain a suitable temperature, pay attention to regular disinfection, keep good ventilation and do a good job in epidemic prevention. In winter and summer, cold resistance measures and cooling measures should be taken. In the laying period, attention should be paid to the quiet environment of the chicken house, so as to minimize noise and stop laying, reduce the stress reaction of the chicken flock and improve the egg production.
