Live Fowl Pox vaccine (usually chick embryo–origin or tissue culture–origin virus).
Administered by wing-web stab method.
2. Recommended Schedule
Stage Age (in weeks) Vaccine Route Notes
Primary (1st) vaccination 8–10 weeks Fowl Pox (live) Wing-web stab Ensure birds are healthy and free from stress.
Booster (2nd) vaccination 16–18 weeks (before transfer to laying house) Fowl Pox (same type) Wing-web stab Confirms solid, long-term immunity during laying phase. Optional:
If breeders are reared in endemic areas or under open housing where mosquito pressure is high, some programs add:Pre-lay booster (around 18–20 weeks) or combined Fowl Pox + AE (Avian Encephalomyelitis) vaccination.
3. Important Management Points
Wing-web check: Always examine 50–100 birds 7–10 days post-vaccination for “takes” (small scab/swelling at the site). A good “take rate” = ≥95% of birds show a scab — confirming effective immunity.
Avoid stress (heat, feed changes, disease outbreaks) during vaccination.
Don’t vaccinate sick birds or during extreme temperature fluctuations.
Mosquito control: Vaccination complements, not replaces, vector management — as mosquitoes transmit fowl pox virus.

Thanks Zeeshan

Well said

Thanks dear Hamza

Statistical Process Control (SPC) can be applied to monitor pellet durability, mixing uniformity, and milling particle size by establishing baseline data, setting control limits, and using control charts to track process stability over time

Great answer Zeeshan

Feeds being analyzed include a wide range of materials for livestock, pets, and aquaculture, such as individual and compound feeds, roughages like hay and silage, grains, and mixed rations

When storing corn in silos, it is necessary to maintain the ideal humidity at or below. This will help the corn to be well preserved and prevent rotting or fungal infections. It is important to dry the corn thoroughly before storing it, so that its humidity drops to this specific level.

Yes, pathogens have been detected in feed samples
