Feeding Strategies for Layers

Proper feeding ensures high egg production and bird health. Layers require:

Starter feed (0–6 weeks): High protein (18-20%) for growth.

Grower feed (6–18 weeks): Moderate protein (15-17%) to prevent excess fat.

Layer feed (18 weeks+): Calcium-rich (3.5-4%) for strong eggshells.

Provide clean water, essential nutrients, and 14-16 hours of light for optimal production.

Feeding adlibidum, with maximum required energy

[Md.Rejuan Hossain]

Consistent access to feed is crucial, as it keeps their energy levels steady, which they need for continuous egg laying. Furthermore, we should remember that hens should consume 40% of their feed in the morning and 60% in the afternoon.
