Layers convert feed into eggs through an efficient process. The feed, typically layer mash, is digested and broken down into essential nutrients like proteins, fats, and calcium. These nutrients are absorbed into the bloodstream and directed to different parts of the reproductive system. Proteins help form the egg white, fats support yolk development, and calcium is critical for shell formation. As the yolk travels through the hen’s oviduct, layers of the egg are added, culminating in a fully-formed egg within 24 hours. Providing balanced feed ensures optimal egg production and healthier birds.
