Increase the illumination time: For users who use the open chicken house to raise the laying hens, it should be noted that the natural light time will gradually decrease after the autumn, so the farmers should pay attention to moderately supplementing the light.

Forced moulting can promote the simultaneous moulting of laying hens. Production, but pay attention to scientific and effective methods is to ensure the success of laying hens and ensure the performance of egg production.
