Congrats endy.but you have to be extra vigilante @ d moment. because,onset of laying imposes stress on the birds initially thus making them susceptible to various diseases.best of luck.

Thanx tabontabon, bt what are d tins dat i shld or shldn't do, cos i plan to give them lasota 2morow or shld i suspend it.

@davizfarm, thanx dear, and why do u say so?

Thank God, atlast, my birds dropped their first egg yesterday at 23weeks, i was begining to worry o,the wait wasn't easy, i pray they do well. tanx to all d great farmers in dis house for everytin. u guys are d bomb.

davidzfarm18:
PRAISE GOD. SAW THE 1ST EGG TODAY @ 17WEEKS 5 DAYS.

Dat's really great, congrats, which farm are ur birds from?

tabontabon:
In continuation from the earlier post. If symptoms persist after treatment mentioned earlier then get POUR ON and apply on each bird. Else,consult your doctor as advised by PARACETAMOL.
Finally,be patient,the weather is a bit harsh.give them multivitamin and feed well.

I've already started d treated and i'm adding the drug in the whole water for d day, wish u had told me dis earlier, again wat's pour on? thank u ,i appreciate.

Thanx guys 4 ur suggestions, they're on deep litre and d lice is much, i'll do as u 've said.

FarmTech:
..
U can give them ivermectin. They normally start laying between 18 and 24 weeks.

i gave them ivermectin wen i first noticed it last wk bt it's still there, maybe i'll try it again, i'm getting tired of dis birds sef.

tabontabon:
Lice infestation results in low output and possible small sized eggs because the lice apart from feeding off d birds also cause irritation.
If you/your staff notice your body itching while close to/handling d birds,you need to watch it.

ok thanks, bt how can it be treated? cos i've noticed it in my birds and i'm suspecting dat it might be d reason they haven't started laying @21 weeks.

tabontabon:
Obnelly,though the harsh heat do result in small sized egg. But with the sneezing you observed in some of them,your birds may be having complex CRD(most of them may not sneeze at all) which may also cause the low output,you can ask your vet about administering FLORFENICOL (hope i got d spelling) based drugs,from my read ups,its good for complex CRD,there is one marketed by zygosis. Also,check for lice,that is another culprit for low output,delouse if need be using pour on. Just my opinion.

pls what and what are the effects of birds having lice and how can it be treated.

Thanx guys @tucurj & eggcellent, let me still be hopeful.

pls great farmers i want to ask, at what age did ur birds lay their first egg, cos my birds are 20weeks already bt no egg yet.

Great farmer, i want to thank u guys for ur help, my birds have recovered from d coryza disease, i gave them neoceryl plus and tylodox wit multivit and they're doing ok now.

Thanx guys 4 ur contributions, @eggcelent u're right, d vaccinatn came a little bit late cos they were sick wen we suppose to vaccinate them, 'll keep u guys updated.

FarmTech:
..
I used keproceryl and multivit, but next time I'll use the vaccine. So Endy are they having problem again?

yes o, i noticed some symptoms of coryza in some of them, so the keproceryl how effective was it.

Eggcelent:
endy247. Coryza vaccine which I bought at #7500 for a thousand dose worked just fine. The anti-biotics used before the vaccination gave only temporary relief. Success.

@eggcelent, they've been vaccinated like 11days ago and they just stated showing d signs, so i need an antibiotic dat will clear it. Thanx.

Fellow farmers pls has anybody treated infectous coryza b4, which drug did u use dat was effective. Thanks 4 ur reply.

TheLight001:
Best time to deworm birds is at 8weeks and 10weeks.

Best time to de-beak is between 6-10weeks. Administer multivitamins 2days before and 2days after de-beaking.

Okay Thanx.

TheLight001:
Watery/whitish poo is a sign of coccidiasis. Very dangerous a disease it is. Treat for coccidiasis as soon as possible.

thanx 4 d info, and do u know d right time to deworm d birds and debeak them as well.

Fellow farmers, pls which drug do i use to treat my 7weeks old pullets of watery/whitish poo, though not all of them just a few of them, and pls when is d best time to debeak and deworm them.

..
Do you still have my number? Flash me let me call you.

No i dont, u can inbox me ur number.

FarmTech:
Production varies with age. Initially it rose to about 90% and gradually fall to 7*%. If you need eggs I have some to sell oo. Our main customer disappointed us and she's owing us now.

yes i do need eggs, how much are u selling now and how do i locate ur farm.

FarmTech:
..
I use mostly vital feed but people say top is better. But the problem is that top is scarce sometimes in my area, so I've not used it. It is more costly too.
..
Do you still sell eggs @newparts?

Thanks 4 ur reply bt how's their production wit vital feed, and yes i still sell eggs bt i hope to be selling my own eggs soon, by God's grace.

@farmtech pls which feed do u use for ur birds, i've abt a thousand birds @ 5weeks and i'm currently using vital feed starter bt i don't want to continue wit it, i heard top feeds is better. Pls ur advice is needed.
