Winter is a good season for hatching chicks. If we want to increase the hatching rate, obtain robust chickens, and increase the survival rate, we must strengthen the breeding of breeding hens, paying particular attention to the supply of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12, also known as anti-anemia vitamin, contains 4.5% cobalt and is the only metal in the vitamin. Vitamin B12's main role is to improve the chicken's hematopoietic capacity, increase the number of hemoglobin and red blood cells, and promote blood formation. Vitamin B12 can also promote the synthesis of protein in the body, so that the chicken body can use amino acids more effectively, which is extremely beneficial to chicken growth and egg production. When vitamin B12 is deficient in the hen's diet, not only the egg production is reduced, but also the egg produced completely loses its hatching power. The hatching rate of the light is reduced, the chicks hatched have poor vitality, poor development, and very low survival rate. Feeding 7 micrograms per kilogram of feed for laying hens, chickens and broiler chicks can meet the needs of their growth by adding 10 micrograms per kilogram of feed. Fishmeal, blood meal, bone meal, peanut cake and crude antibiotic feed contain more vitamin B12. In the usual supply, you can prevent the lack of vitamin B12.
