102
Q

very important in the development of new layers.

103
Q

will encourage the birds to keep close to source of heat, feed and water.

A

light in the brooder

104
Q

influence the production of larger eggs.

A

correct light to dark ratio in the rearing house

105
Q

favorable for growth because there is eating time if food is available.

A

during the first few days of brooding, lighting the chicks throughout the night (24hrs)

106
Q

one cardinal rule in lighting

A

never increase the light during growing period and never decrease light during the laying period

107
Q

what happen when you increase day length (light) during growing period of birds

A

it will 1. hasten sexual maturity w/c will result to prodution of more pullet eggs (small eggs),
2. layers are prone to prolapsed and shorter egg production cycle.

108
Q

addition of 5-10% of sugar in the drinking water can be done ?

A

for the first 6-8 hrs during the arrival of the day old chick. (DOC)

109
Q

watering

A
  • availability of drinking water to the chicks must be emphasized
  • supplementation of water-soluble vitamin-mineral antibiotic preparation can give the chicks a good start too.

116
Q

6-8 weeks

medication and route

A

fowl pox

wing web

117
Q

is a bad habit developed by some growing birds.

usually starts from feather or toe pcking w/c may result to serious wounding and death birds

A

cannibalism

118
Q

possible causes of cannibalism are

A
  1. imbalanced ration - high energy diet w/ low protein leads to this problem
  2. overcrowding and insufficiency of feeding and drinking space
  3. extended period w/o feed and water
  4. poor ventilation
  5. excessive heat and too much light
  6. it may also be strain characteristic
119
Q

factors affecting length of brooding period

A
  1. weather/climatic conditions - longer during cold and rainy months, shorter during dry and warm months.
  2. rate of feathering - shorter for fast feathering breeds/varieties/strains, longer for slow feathering: can be due to genetic meakeup or nytition of the birds.
120
Q

system of rearing

A
  1. range system
  2. semi-confinement system
  3. complete - confinement
121
Q

this is a good system but because of more land area required, this system is commonly practice by native chicken growers and by duck raisers

A
  1. range system
122
Q

this is a system of raising poutry where birds are provided w/ shed or housing and an area to graze or pasture
ex. native chicken, organic chicken production

A
  1. semi-confinement system
123
Q

the modern trend in raising commercial strains

A
  1. complete - confinement
124

125
Q

feeding requirements of growing pullets

feeding requirements of growing pullets

14 -20 weeks

A

pullet developer ration - 14% protein

127
Q

birds tends to lay eggs early when

A

feed of high protein content

*this is not desirable since early sexual maturity results in smaller pullets and consequently production of smaller eggs

128
Q 
rearing of pullets
feed wastage ( conventional feeding through and a mash ration)

completely full

A

30% of feed is wasted

129
Q

only broiler of one being raised and all of them are sold at the same time;
most desirable to affect a simple disease control measure, especially if one locality, community or area, there will be no other age groups of birds.
