mine just dropped an egg yesterday and today for the first time. I measured one at random and it weighed 3.3kg I am guessing it is overweight.

Congrats they will lay just change to layers and add lighting

Update the birds started laying
THINGS I DID DIFFERENTLY:
1. i started regulating their feed from 8 weeks when i changed to growers mash so i stopped at 18 weeks when i noticed none have dropped and started feeding adlib so try to feed adlib from small if you can.
2. I added vitamins to their water twice a week and checked them for lice.
3. Someone told me to introduce light since they're mostly over 1.5kg so On Saturday night i introduced light for 1 hour and the next day they dropped their 1st two eggs so provide light if you can. And i have been increasing the light 1 hour everyday till i get to 16 hours. Thanks.

So i should put them on layers mash

God help us

Ufeolorun:
19 weeks not a single egg may not necessarily be an issue, it becomes one at 21weeks.

do you have their medical record
3in1 nd+ib+ ?
deworming
how many grams are you feeding them per bird
multivitamins ?
what sort of feed- layers,grower or prelay?
how many hours of light are they getting
do they finish the feed allocation daily?

I give them lasota every month cos i have a small number and i can't afford 3 in 1 for 1k birds
Yeah deworm and delouse every month
110 grams per day
Am still using 12 hours daylight since they have not started laying
Yeah they do finish the feed

Don’t panic, this birds I’m seeing will drop in a week time. Birds drops sometimes 20 and 21 weeks.

Thanks sir am praying ooo

mcdokwe:


mine have gone past 19 (since the first week of march, even though I stopped counting for my own sanity)still no show, a lot of people say some start laying after 30 weeks

Haa 30 weeks i throway salut ooo
That's alot of money on feed
Hope you have check for lice and used vitamins with strong antibiotics maybe to clear anything inside them. Me have started feeding adlib from 18 weeks sha. I was regulating it before

Use google to search nl for issues like this

Have searched and some people had it in 2014 or so that's far.

This birds are from zartech and this is the first time am buying from them. Anyone with experience on zartech bird or someone that something like this has happen to please help.

They're Cobb 500 and you can get procaine penicillin to treat that watery eyes.... Next time advance CRD that result in swollen face or thick catarrah coming out of the nose need a strong tylosin and doxycycline based drug like tylodox to treat it.

Hello there ..... New update
Our bird are very weak because of the debeaking and they had coccidiosis when we did the debeaking so after giving them vitamins + glucose we introduce them to embazin forte for 3 days then clean water today and tomorrow then another 3 days of embazin forte to complete the dosage.

The birds will be 7 week on Wednesday and they have an average weight of 400g. Coccidiosis was discovered also but in the pre clinical stage so we are starting embazin forte from tomorrow . Oh God let it end in praise

Hello there .... So we debeaked the layers today and it's a very stressful one Thank God sha

Never heard of the milk part. Interesting!

The milk helps destroy the ions in the water in other to help the vaccine work better.
