Basic information

Egg production is one of the most common things in poultry business worldwide. It is the nutritional base of millions of families in many countries. For this reason, poultry production systems must guarantee the transport of eggs until the egg reaches the people’s dining room and is completely safe. In laying hen farms is necessary to study, implement and know what mechanisms are going to be used to collect the eggs laid by the hens. Economic, geographical and technical factors are involved there. Chicken eggs are one of the most important food sources globally

The equipment that aid in the collection of egg is called the egg collecting system. Eggs can reach easily to the egg belt owing to well bevel base wires. In this way, cracked and dirtiness can be reduced at minimum level. The egg collection contains lift system which reach each tiers by moving up and down, the eggs are collected from each tier and transported to the requested place and distance

The egg collecting system is the most versatile system in the market.  Additionally, it provides its elevator system with a higher collecting capacity by allowing the collection of eggs simultaneously from all tiers. Eggs are collected individually per tier, with a gear motor per tier, allowing a maximum flexibility to our customers’ daily egg collection. The Maximum transport distance could over one kilometre and the conveyor can be connected directly to the egg packing machine

Therefore, optimizing all its production stages allows higher yields and lower costs, as well as ensures food safety Lengthwise egg collection system operates on the level-by-level basis. The crosswise conveyor adjusted for specific battery level actuates the respective lengthwise belts, so the egg is transported to the conveyor. Then the egg moves along the inclined conveyor portion and arrives at the stacking table. When out of operation, the crosswise conveyor rests at the upper level in order to avoid interference with the personnel activities

The lengthwise belts may operate at different speed rates. The speed rate is selected by the poultry farm personnel depending on the egg-laying performance of the flock and the cross-wise conveyor utilization level. In order to prevent egg contamination during handling at the egg collection belt, the equipment incorporates a dedicated lengthwise belt cleaning brush with the waste container. The lift-based egg collection system may be integrated into the general egg-handling system of the poultry farm

How to increase egg production rate

1. Adequate provision of Food

To keep your flocks body functioning properly you need to supply nutrient rice units each day, protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. For the laying flocks it is essential to provide them with 16 to 18 percent protein and 3 % calcium with their daily food to keep them strong and for strong egg shell. Many of the poultry farmers try to save money by feeding household food scraps and scratch grains. It remarkably reduces the production of eggs

2. Adequate supply of water

A constant supply of fresh and clean water is needed for maximum egg production. Not only the hen’s body but also half of the eggs volume consists of water. If you fail to supply enough amount of fresh water, eggs production will be reduced. So you have to ensure that you have a reliable water source for both hot and dry period

3. Always keep a clean coop

Ensure to always keep a clean coop by avoiding overcrowding and you must try to keep the environment as clean as possible. And you should not allow any visitors to your farm and if you need to make a visit you should take a shower before you visit. You should avoid clothing like baseball cap and shoes 

4. Set an artificial light source

Light is another good factor which controls the egg production. For maximum eggs production 14 hours of light is needed. Hens at winter season reduce their egg production due to insufficient of light and its intensity. But if you install an artificial light source in your farm and ensure 14 hours of light with sufficient intensity. You will be able to increase the eggs production rate

5. Egg production expectation

A hen lays only one egg in a day, and in some days it may not lay any egg at all. It totally depends on the hen’s reproductive system. A hen body start to form a new egg after it has laid the previous egg. It takes about 26 hours to form an egg fully, so mathematically a hen will lay its next egg two hours late each day, the reproductive system of a hen also sensitive to light exposure. So if a hen lays egg too late in a day it will skip the next day

6. Proper Nutrition

Chickens need a balanced diet with enough level of protein and calcium to continue the maximum egg production over a certain period of time. Proper nutrition can make the hens to continuously laying eggs. Balanced level of protein, energy and calcium can increase the egg production. That is why it is so important to supply a continuous balanced food to get a continuous supply of nutritional feeds

7. Food ingredients

Daylight is also a great factor which controls the production of eggs. Hens need at least 14 hours of daylight. The intensity of light must be sufficient to increase egg production. Two methods are followed for the housing and management system of layer hens and they are the flood production and the caged layer production. By using any of these methods, you can keep your hens in production throughout the year. You should keep your poultry farm away from other. A good drainage system is a must for the poultry farm. To provide enough light intensity, adequate light fixtures are needed

Precaution

1. Avoid the entry of external infectious agents through vehicles or external personnel to the farm and keep entry and exit records, carry out complete disinfection of vehicles, utensils, and staff

2. Carry out periodic cleaning and disinfection inside the vehicles used to transport eggs to avoid contamination of these during the trip

3. Qualify the personnel who carry out the transport of eggs in measures of good hygiene and food handling practices, to avoid the loss of safety of the eggs due to improper handling

4. Minimize any risk of egg breakage, including environmental, human, or mechanical factors, this will prevent the entry of microorganisms into the egg

5. Ensure that the load of eggs is secured correctly inside the transport truck, to avoid accidents that could damage the eggs

6. Collect the eggs after feeding the hens to avoid stress during their feeding and not to interfere with this stage

7. Make a complete collection every 2 hours approximately, to avoid damage to the shell or integrity of the egg

8. Use new cardboard trays and never from another farm, to avoid the entry of infectious agents

9. Place the eggs with the flattened side up and the sharper side down, this will protect the air chamber of the egg ensuring a longer shelf life

10. Classify the eggs by their size

11. Never use dirty or broken eggs for human consumption

12. Change the litter material of the posture places; never reuse material from the shed floor

13. Clean and disinfect egg collection containers or replace them with new ones when possible

14. Staff should wash and disinfect their hands before manually collecting eggs

15. Avoid placing the egg containers directly on the floor or against the walls, they should be placed on wooden pallets or other material that ensures their distance from the floor
