@Trueigbo, your birds are doing fine at this age. Your floor spacing and feeder\drinker arrangement is good. Your birds look healthy,too.
However, please hang the feeders and place the drinkers to reach the crop level of the birds.
@samuel25, ur bird shall recover, put it on the floor, try and gently insert the organs(if any outside the vent) back, spray with oxytet aerosol and allow the bird rest with feed and vitamins 2ru water. All the best.
Re: Starting A Poultry Farm (a Blog) by fishleg123: 3:17pm On Mar 22, 2015
I greeting. u all farmers in d house. my 200 black birds, layers are now 22 weeks old. as at last Wednesday and Thursday, they layed 40 and 42 eggs respectively. but on Friday and Saturday , they layed 36 and 37 eggs respectively. this is strange because they had always been increasing their eggs.
please house, what could be the cause of this.
thanks.

Try giving them extra light from 6pm to 10pm, but increase it gradually. You must be consistent once u start else it will affect them badly. If there is no nepa u can use rechargeable lantern connected to car battery.
