Manganese should be added in appropriate amounts to laying hen feed in summer
In summer, pay attention to adding an appropriate amount of manganese to the laying feed
Adding 55 to 60 grams of manganese per ton of chicken feed can not only meet normal laying needs, but also give eggshells the best quality. In addition, 0.05% zinc and 0.4% magnesium should also be added to the feed. Low manganese can reduce the specific gravity of eggshells and increase the proportion of cracked eggs; while high magnesium can reduce the chicken's feed intake and increase the breakage rate. Therefore, an appropriate amount of trace elements must be added to the diet to ensure egg quality.
