Chicken eggs are soft

Why do hens lay soft eggs?

1. Lack of nutrition

Calcium is an important mineral needed to make eggshells. When raising hens, if they lack minerals, they will lay soft-shell eggs. It is necessary to provide hens with feeds with higher protein and mineral content, which can be used in feeds. Add fish meal, bone meal, calcium flakes, etc., to ensure balanced nutrition of hens.

2. Less light

Hens will lay soft-shell eggs when the light time is too short. When raising hens, they need to be driven outside in the morning, so that the hens receive at least 10 hours of light a day, and when the light is insufficient , It is necessary to install lighting lamps in the pens to provide artificial light for the hens.

3. The enclosure is small

When raising hens, if the chicken house is small and humid, it will cause the hen to lack exercise, which will affect the vasoconstriction of the hen, which will make the calcium and phosphorus and other substances unable to be transported to the egg-laying area of ​​the hen normally. , Body size group feeding, is conducive to its healthy growth.

4. Stress response

The reproductive system of hens will be disturbed after being frightened, so that they can produce soft-shell eggs. When raising hens, they need to be produced in a relatively quiet shed, and a security room should be set up outside the hen house, and outsiders should not be allowed to breed. People break in at will to avoid cats, dogs and other animals from frightening the hens.
