Vaccination for layers

Day old: Marek’s vaccine

Day 7 and 21: Newcastle vaccine

Day 14 and 28: Gumboro vaccine

Week 6-8: Fowl pox vaccine

Week 14 and 16: Egg Drop Syndrome. Before birds starts to lay. Best at 14 to 15 wks because some birds starts to lay at wk 16 when properly managed

Note:

Debeak birds at week 10

Deworm birds at week 9 and 15

Layer birds in lay should be given Newcastle vaccine on monthly basis

Vaccination is not an absolute protection against disease

Deworming should be done at interval, maybe 2 or 3 months. Though it may have impact on their lay a little but it’s good to do it
