What to do if the hen does not lay eggs?

2020-10-26

Whether it is a layer farmer with a chicken house, a free-range chicken farmer who uses both meat and eggs, or an old hen raised in a farmer’s house, if it does not lay eggs, it will be a great loss for the chicken farmer . To this end, let me introduce the reasons and solutions for hens not laying eggs.

If the hen has just started to lay eggs, it is easy to have an incorrect egg position. In this case, the hen will have difficulty laying eggs or will not lay eggs. At this time, the chicken raiser should assist the hen. The specific method is: one person first grabs the hen's wings and thighs, makes the chicken head up and the chicken's abdomen facing out, and then another person smears vegetable oil on the right finger and inserts it into the chicken's cloaca, straightens the egg position, and Peel off the oviduct mucosa covering the egg surface, and at the same time slowly press the hen's abdomen with your left hand to press out the remaining egg.

The above method is a treatment method for the difficulty of laying eggs in the early stage of laying eggs. Generally, if the above-mentioned methods are processed in time in the early stage, the problem of hens not laying eggs can be solved well. However, if the hen does not lay eggs and often has bowel movements, it may be that the cloaca is inflamed. At this time, the chicken breeder should feed the hens with oxytetracycline in the morning and evening for anti-inflammation. At the same time, they can clean the cloaca of the hen with iodine dissolved in warm water. Touch gently to help it return to its original position.

Some chicken breeders report that the comb is bright red and plump, and they "lay eggs" in the henhouse every day. They will rattle when they leave the henhouse, but when they enter the henhouse, there are no eggs in it. What's going on? In fact, this is a typical hen yolk peritonitis. The embarrassing thing about this kind of chicken disease is that apart from fake laying, there are usually no other external symptoms. Only after an autopsy will the hen's abdominal cavity find yellow effusion and spoiled egg yolk fragments.

The cause of the onset of yolk peritonitis in hens is usually caused by fright. Usually, the hens during the laying period are best not to chase and frighten them violently, otherwise it is easy to cause mature eggs to fall into the abdominal cavity instead of the fallopian tube by mistake. Some chicken farmers often use antibacterial drugs to treat hen yolk peritonitis, but they generally do not have a significant effect. Here is a recipe to tell everyone that chicken farmers can mix the ground rhubarb vine into flour to make pellets. Each hen eats 3 times a day, each time the amount is about 2 grams of crude medicine. Feeding this method for about a week will generally allow the hens to return to normal laying. You should continue to feed for another week to consolidate the effect and prevent recurrence.
