Chicks cannot regulate their body temperature well during the first weeks of life. Sudden drops or spikes in temperature can cause:
Chilling – leading to hypothermia, reduced activity, poor feeding, and increased susceptibility to disease.
Overheating – causing dehydration, panting, stress, and even death in extreme cases. -
Please if anyone have Ideal I wish to learn too. Thank you

Extending lay cycles to 100 weeks is viable but requires careful nutritional management to offset costs from poor shell quality and increased Salmonella risk, with the economic benefit depending on the specific farm’s conditions. Cutting-edge strategies go beyond simple calcium and include: a “Hybrid Feed” system with reduced energy and elevated amino acids, optimizing gut health through specific feed structures and additives, managing egg weight through amino acid adjustments, and prioritizing a robust rearing phase to build bone and digestive capacity.

- : What are the most effective, low-cost training methods (e.g., visual guides, short video modules, gamification) for new hires that ensure biosecurity principles are understood, especially when language barriers exist? How can we better integrate biosecurity plans into a documentation system that survives personnel changes?

- Is the economic benefit of extending the lay cycle to 100 weeks still viable when considering the increasing costs associated with poor shell quality, downgrading, and Salmonella risk in late-cycle flocks? What are the cutting-edge late-cycle nutritional strategies (beyond simple calcium) the community is seeing success with?
