Detailed Technical Analysis & Market Intelligence
Layer fatigue (osteoporosis) occurs when high-yielding White Layer hens draw calcium from their structural bones to form eggshells, often due to dietary mineral deficiencies. This condition causes leg weakness and paralysis in hens. To prevent cage fatigue, farmers use premium feed formulations and liquid mineral supplements. These inputs can be sourced via Poultry Plaza at competitive prices. Farmers also monitor regional egg prices on the Poultry Rates Page or the Poultry Baba Mobile App to manage their operational margins.
