HOW TO INCREASE EGG PRODUCTION IN
COMMERCIAL LAYERS

For every additional 45 grams in body weight at 18 weeks of age, the egg size increases 0.5 grams. In addition, underweight pullets usually do not have the skeletal frame necessary to maintain good egg shell quality after 40 weeks of age. Underweight pullets tend to be underweight as layers. The pullet body weight is affected by nutrition, disease, lighting, space allotment and beak trimming.
There are many factors that have to consider to increase the quality and production of commercial layers.

A laying hens lays only one egg in a day, but it depends on many factor to lay, Hen start to form another egg immediately it lays.
There are many factors affecting the quality and quantity of egg production

a) Egg size
b) Shell quality
c) Light intensity
d) Energy intake
e) Phase feeding
F) Vaccination programs to enhance internal and external egg quality
F) Feed related problems

Light intensity

When the lights are off, chickens do not eat and this results in low egg production. Lights should be checked regularly and cleaned so that they do not get dimmer.
Bulbs should be changed when necessary.
Chickens should be exposed to light for a minimum of 14 hours and a maximum of 17 hours per day. Exposure to light for less than the minimum time required results in a drop in egg production.
When chickens are exposed to too much light, they reach sexual maturity at an early stage and they lay very small eggs.

Chicken Factors

Layers are usually kept for 52 weeks. After this period, they undergo a stage called moulting where they lose their feathers and stop producing eggs. Egg production will start again in the second laying period after moulting, but the eggs will be bigger, shells thinner and production lower.

Energy intake and egg size

It is generally assumed that the feed intake of laying hens will vary with the energy content of the feed. In other words, higher energy rations result in lower feed intake. While this usually does occur, the expected decline in feed intake is seldom fully achieved. The result is a net increase in energy intake for the hen. Feeds formulated with low energy ingredients such as wheat and barley often result in insufficient energy intake for hens to maintain good production (
