is there any any antagonism when we use immunity boosters together?

A current feed analysis is correlated with previous analyses by establishing trends, verifying consistency, and informing future decisions. By comparing results, one can identify changes in nutritional content due to factors like weather or genetics, ensure ingredient quality hasn’t degraded, and adjust feed formulation to meet animal needs. This comparison is vital for maintaining animal health, optimizing production, and preventing formulation errors or manufacturing issues, making feed analysis a continuous process of monitoring and refinement.

Egg size in layers will depend on the following…
Breed
Body weight ( heavier birds lay larger eggs)
Age – egg size increases with age
Disease conditions – In general, any disease or infection or stress cause reduction in egg size. Egg drop syndrome, IB, ND, influenza cause reduced egg size
Nutrition – optimum nutrition is essential to maintain egg number and egg size. Deficiency of energy, protein, amino acids etc reduces egg size. Both the Quality and quantity of feed given is important.
Inadequate light and water, hear stress can also reduce egg size.

why there are loose dropping in heat stress?

broiler weight at 35 days 2-2.4 kg as per nutrition, breed, management, weather, space

as per purpose and region

Appearances of comb in poultry largely reflect it’s health condition.
Healthy birds will have bright, shiny and errect combs.
Following are some of the indications of poor health:
1. Pale comb – indicates underlying disease conditions which has led to disturbance in the metabolism or circulatory system. Eg. Anaemia, parasitic infection, fatty liver and kidney syndrome etc
Pale and shrivelled/ droopy comb is also noticed in layers with less or no egg production, hence can be used as one of the criterion to judge layers for production performance.
2. Swollen and bluish comb – indicates certain disease conditions involving respiratory and circulatory system Eg: Infections coryza, CRD, avian influenza, IBH etc
3. Lesions on the comb (blisters or vesicles) : seen in fowl pox and T2 toxicosis.

What are the health advantages of using soy oil as a cooking oil compared to other commonly used oils?
-
Adding soy to your diet can provide numerous health benefits, including a rich source of high-quality protein and essential amino acids. Soy is also packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, contributing to heart health and reducing the risk of chronic diseases. It contains isoflavones, which may help alleviate menopausal symptoms and support bone health. Furthermore, incorporating soy can promote sustainable eating practices, as it has a lower environmental impact compared to animal-based proteins.
