The reason and solution of hen not laying eggs

Whether it is modern intensive chicken farming, free-range native chicken farmers for both meat and eggs, or family chicken farmers, once it is found that hens do not lay eggs, it will be a huge loss to farmers. So what causes hens not to lay eggs? Let's take a look.

1. Incorrect egg position

If the hen is just beginning to lay eggs, then in this case the hen will not have difficulty in laying eggs or will not lay eggs. In this case, the farmer will need to assist the hen in laying. The specific method is that one person grabs the wings and thighs of the hen, makes the head upward and the abdomen outward, and then the other person smears vegetable oil with his fingers, inserts the egg into the cloaca of the chicken, sets the egg position straight, and at the same time peels off the fallopian tube mucosa covered by the egg surface, and then slowly presses the hen's abdomen with the other hand, pressing the remaining eggs out.

2. Inflammation of cloaca

The above method, which is difficult to lay eggs, is generally suitable for laying hens, which can solve the problem of not laying eggs very well. if the hens do not lay eggs and often defecate, then the cloaca is inflamed. For example, at this time, farmers should feed oxytetracycline early and late for anti-inflammatory treatment, at the same time, clean the cloaca of hens with iodine dissolved in warm water, and then gently touch the oviducts of hens to help them restore their original position.

3. Yolk peritonitis

I don't know if you have found this kind of situation when raising chickens in the family, then there will be cackling when the hens leave after laying eggs in the nest, but if you go to see the henhouse, you will find that there are no eggs. In fact, this situation is a typical yolk peritonitis, this disease has no harm to the chicken itself, in addition to maternity leave eggs, generally no other symptoms, only after dissection of the chicken can be found in the abdominal cavity with yellow effusion and deteriorated yolk fragments. This disease is usually caused by shock, usually do not chase and frighten the hen during the laying period, otherwise it is very easy to cause the egg to fall into the abdominal cavity rather than the fallopian tube. Many of this disease is treated with antimicrobials, but the effect is not obvious. You can try to use ground rhubarb vines mixed with flour to make balls. Each hen eats 3 times a day, each time the amount is about 2 grams of crude medicine, and the hen can return to normal in a week.
