Christmas tree or Steinberger type sprayers have been used extensively in layer houses to vaccinate hens while they are in the cages.
Proper administration is vital for vaccination success
Dr. Roselina Angel said, “I do think that there is room for improvement in amino acid digestibility in layers, broilers and turkeys.”

Study compares range, cage-free, conventional egg production
Each 56-pound bushel of corn will produce 2.8 gallons of ethanol and 17.5 pounds of DDGS, which may offer an opportunity for all U.S. egg producers to lower cost of rations in the wake of high corn prices and increasing demand of ethanol.
Economics of DDGS use in layer rations improves
Three salmonella vaccination programs, labeled A, B and C, were tested to show how well each protected leghorn hens from SE colonization of the liver, spleen, ovary and oviducts following an oral SE challenge.
Vaccination options to prevent Salmonella enteritidis
In order to be truly representative, samples must be collected from individual birds distributed throughout the house, not in just one section.
Interpreting ELISA results requires experience in evaluating data
For the 2011 growing season, ethanol will consume 40% of the corn crop, requiring livestock and poultry producers to replace diverted corn and more expensive soybean meal in diets.
Using more DDGS in poultry feed
An egg-positive confirmation is even more serious due to the cost of diverting production to breaking for at least eight weeks if four consecutive tests are negative or the remaining life of the flock.
