More extra hatching eggs per day with Panbonis®
Wyreside together with Lohmann did a trial to complete the factual evidence on the use of an alternative source of feed additives to support eggshell strength which affects utilisation and hatchability from approximately 45 weeks of the flock.
Supplying Panbonis® as a source of the bioactive form of vitamin D, directly stimulates calcium absorption from the intestines and the calcium balance in the hen. During the following test period, the hatchability was on average 2.2% higher in the test barn where Panbonis® was fed, compared to the control barn where oyster shell was used. A simple calculation shows that based on 22 000 hens per barn, Panbonis® gave 325 extra hatching eggs per day during the 10-week test period from 50 to 60 weeks of age.
During the following test period, the hatchability was on average 2.2% higher in the
test barn where Panbonis® was fed, compared to the control barn where oyster shell was used (figure 2). From 50 to 60 weeks of age, hatchability was on average 83.6% in the control barn, and 85.8% in the test barn. A simple calculation shows that based on 22,000 hens per barn, Panbonis® gave 325 extra hatching eggs per day during the 10-week test period from 50 to 60 weeks of age. These farm data were confirmed by the hatchery that showed a higher saleable hatch of 84.0% in the Panbonis barn over 81.4% in the control barn. This difference shows that Panbonis can effectively replace oyster shell supplementation in the late laying phase of breeding hens.
On the evidence achieved I will be using this strategy in the future flocks. John Hodgkinson
