Laying hens produce a certain number of soft shell eggs and thin shell eggs, which will reduce the economic benefits of farmers. The main reason for this situation is that because the calcium content required by the laying hen does not meet the standard, how to make scientific calcium supplement for the chicken in layer chicken cages equipment?
1. Calcium should be selected at the right time. Farmers can make calcium supplements before turning off the lights in the afternoon to night. It is best from 2 to 4 pm. It has been determined that most of the calcium absorbed by chickens in the morning is stored in the bones, and the calcium absorbed in the afternoon or evening is directly used for the formation of the eggshells of the day.
2. Calcium must choose a good calcium material. Eggshell powder is the best choice, followed by shell powder and bone powder.
3. Scientific calcium supplementation. The amount of calcium supplement must be proportional. Too much or too little is not conducive to laying chicken.
