Apart from heat stress, sudden death in broiler chickens, often referred to as Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) or Flip-over disease, can be caused by a combination of factors including <mark>metabolic disorders, genetic predisposition, and management practices</mark>. These factors can lead to cardiac arrhythmias and heart failure, resulting in sudden death.

Initial investment costs for starting a poultry farm vary significantly based on scale, location, and specific choices like whether to raise broilers or layers and the type of housing. A small-scale farm with 1,000 birds could require an initial investment of f 500 USD to 1500 USD, while larger farms can require much more.

‎Probiotics in feed formulation are important because they promote a healthy gut microbiota, which improves nutrient digestion and absorption, enhances immune function, and supports overall animal health. This leads to better feed efficiency, improved growth performance, and higher productivity, making probiotics a valuable additive in sustainable and profitable livestock production.

loose and not caked

not too wet and not too dried

low level ammonia (less than 20 ppm)

[Kishor]

In a deep litter system, the ideal litter conditions should <mark>maintain a moisture content between 20-25% and keep ammonia levels below 25 ppm</mark> according to poultry resources. Maintaining these levels is crucial for bird health, welfare, and performance, as high moisture and ammonia can lead to various health issues and reduced productivity.
