Influence des paramètres zootechniques sur la reproduction aviaire (Repro-chair)

Abstract

Raising the modern broiler breeder is an exciting challenge, Indeed, these birds are characterized by a high reproductive potential (145 to 150 chicks per hen is a realistic objective), while retaining the growth potential of a modern broiler. In order to allow broiler breeders to reach their maximum reproductive potential, it is essential to guarantee them adequate nutrition, especially before and after peak egg-laying. During these two crucial periods, the farmer must take into account the condition of the batch in terms of egg production, weight gain, and fat and feather reserves, to ensure that the birds are neither underfed nor overfed. In short, the feeding of modern broiler breeder requires a global strategy allowing adequate implementation of nutritional parameters and feeding programs.
