  • If the hen is too thin, longevity and egg production can be impacted
  • But if the hen is too fat the results can be equally devastating
  • Good health and condition for both the hen and the cock, must be achieved

Nutrition can play an important role in supporting bird health throughout the laying season:

  • Maximising egg production
  • Improving fertility and hatchability
  • Laying the foundations for optimum breeding
