Poultry expert in the house please what is the effect of this contibous cold weather on poultry egg laying. What egg laying percent can one expect

There are no visible sign of diesease on them

Check light situation, your formulation & adjust accordingly. Generally heavy down affects HDP but not persistently. As per ideal HDP, without knowing the age & breed (brown or black) of the birds it will be difficult to estimate & suggest a feasible hdp.

Thanks it is isa brown. 11 months

100 birds, they are eating hybrid layers mash. Pls any advice

Isa brown @ 44wks you should be getting at least 75%. Pls check their feed intake, quality & lightening schedule.

Although, comparativecomparatively consume less than black but i don't think 100gm is enough for 44wks birds. u can start by gradual increase to 105gm, then 110gm & 115gm(I.e 5gm increase 3-4days interval till u get to 115gm then 5gm per WK but don't exceed 125gm per bird). maximum 125gm & adjust accordingly. be observant & watch out for feed level in d feeder, check ur water quality & light. 5gm *100birds=0.5kg increase every 3day. God bless.
