The choice of a poultry breed depends entirely on the operational goals, as breeds are specialized for different purposes like egg production, meat production, or dual-purpose (both meat and eggs). Key factors to consider are the climate, available housing, and the specific market you aim to serve. For example, Leghorns are excellent layers, while specialized breeds like Isa Browns are chosen for commercial egg operations, and broilers are selected for fast meat growth.

How to keep chickens cool during extreme heat?

Consistent feed quality is ensured through accurate formulation, quality raw materials, strict process control, regular lab testing, and proper conditioning and cooling to maintain nutritional content and pellet durability.

A veterinarian should be informed immediately upon suspicion of a reportable disease, though the speed of diagnosis depends on the type of testing, with in-house tests providing same-day results and lab-based tests taking longer. The veterinarian then uses the diagnosis to determine the appropriate course of action and inform relevant authorities if the disease requires immediate reporting to protect public or animal health.

Common parameters tested in feed quality assurance include moisture, protein, fat, fiber, ash, calcium, phosphorus, amino acids, and aflatoxin levels to ensure nutritional balance and safety.
