AgricultureRe: Advise Pls! 7birds Laying At 23wks by rubris4u(op): 5:43pm On Mar 05, 2015
Right now they eat abt 50kg/day.often times,early in the morning when i empty their feeders of the previous day feed and weigh it,its about 8-10kg guess it is because at midday the heat is always much.
I feed them early in the morning and refresh their feeders around 3pm. i dont have light on the farm now & i dont want to photostimulate them.
FarmTech:
The main thing I noticed here is that you're not feeding them fine. According to this chart for Hyline brown, at 23 wks they're suppose to consume about 100g/bird/day (some other charts put it at 112g for Isa brown). 112g x 506=56.672kg. So increase their feed.

@jamp,exactly my thoughts,having a performance timeline for them in order to prevent incurring cost. Staybless.
jamp:
dont press the stop button. keep moving. everything is experience. if by 27wks u are not getting 50% production, please sell and restock
AgricultureRe: Advise Pls! 7birds Laying At 23wks by rubris4u(op): 3:14am On Mar 05, 2015
@alexbigtin, thanks. i mix the grower and layer feed at 50:50 ratio. I am not giving them only layers.
alexbigtin:
well there is nothing to worry about.
given layer mash when there re not even up to 2% lay may later leads to accumulation of abdominal fat which in turn predispose ur birds to prolapse.
I wont advice u to give 16 hours light but I we encourage you to practise early morning feeding around 6am. and if possible feed them like thrice a day the same quantity u re using now.

@davidzfarm,thanks. Just that my first two batches(150birds/batch) were blacks and started laying by 20wks,50% was achieved by 24wks. Right now all i have is going on this birds.
davidzfarm18:
May I start by congratulating you. Why? The fact that some are laying means they will all start to lay.
although you shouldn't have introduced layers mash.
you need to check the weight and they should consume minimum 50 kg now. the good news is that you will get bigger eggs
AgricultureRe: Advise Pls! 7birds Laying At 23wks by rubris4u(op): 9:07am On Mar 04, 2015
@jamp,may God bless your effort.tx
jamp:
all things being equal they will lay soon. i guess it the stress. give them amino total
AgricultureRe: Advise Pls! 7birds Laying At 23wks by rubris4u(op): 9:04am On Mar 04, 2015
@jamp,thanks. I am just worried and am thinking of cutting my loses before it is too late. So far no mortality.
How long will you suggest i hold on before pressing the stop button on them.
jamp:
my dear be patient with them. they will soon start. increase the number of day light to 16hours. also change their feed to layers mash.
if u are close to any clinic, take some there for test to see if there is any vaccine failure. also the stress of transportation and caging can also contribute.

there are other factors that can affect sexual maturity of the birds: source of doc, management practice during brooding and rearing.
AgricultureRe: Advise Pls! 7birds Laying At 23wks by rubris4u(op): 8:56am On Mar 04, 2015
@sprintson,each unit/basket has 5cells.
The mixing ratio now is 50:50,layers:growers.
I pack their litter every 2days. Thanks
Sprintson:
Whats your cell dimension? Whats the level of hygiene and the feed mixing ratio? These things can affect their laying capacity

Over 2o views and not a single comment. Is my situation that bad?
rubris4u:
Great farmers,pls i need your advice/help before i loose my mind. I have 23wks,506 nos brown pullets and only 7 have started laying since last week.
Their data is as follows:
i raised them from day old with all vaccinations complete.
They eat btw 44kg and 48kg per day.
At 20wks,i mix grower and layer feed for them. I use hybrid feed.
They are on constant multivitamin.
I dewormed and deloused them using ivermectin(kepromec) at 18wks and repeated it 3wks after.
PLS NOTE: I moved them from lagos to abeokuta(permanent site) at 16wks and caged them at abt 18wks. There are 4birds /cell.
Pls suggestions,insight and advice are needed.

All i can say is GEJ & his cohorts just keep sinking in scandals. Not long ago mr president's handler came out with a flimpsy excuse,after so much public outcry regarding his 'romance' with Modu Sheriff in Chad.
Now,here comes an arms deal gone bad.
WHY WOULD A LEGIT GOVT BUY ARMS IN THE BLACK MARKET?
