The chickens shed feathers all over, but there are no feathers in the coop, indicating that they were eaten by other chickens. This is caused by lack of sulfur or amino acids in the chicken body, so gypsum or amino acids should be supplemented. If the chickens have dull feathers at the end of moulting, before and at the beginning of labor, they should be fed some high-cholesterol feed.

 


Also observe some of the appetite of the chickens in the chicken cage. A strong appetite indicates that the physiological condition of the chicken is normal, healthy and disease-free. The loss of appetite is generally caused by factors such as sudden changes in feed, observation of breeder replacement, and frightened observation of flocks.
