When the egg market is good, some chicken farmers often increase the amount of vitamins in order to increase the egg production of the hens in order to produce more eggs. As a result, the laying hens develop hypervitaminosis, which will affect the growth and production of the laying hens. egg. Adding vitamins to layer feed must be added strictly according to the standard, and increasing the dosage at will will cause harm to the layer.<\/p>\n
Vitamin A The appropriate content of vitamin A per kilogram of feed is 4000 international units.

The appropriate content of vitamin K per kilogram of feed for vitamin K layers is 0.5 mg. When overfeeding, due to its stimulation of gastrointestinal mucosa inflammation, chickens show a sharp decrease in appetite and diarrhea, resulting in a decrease in egg production, and in severe cases, production is stopped.<\/p>\n
