TYPES OF CHICKEN LAYER



     
Type of laying hens were divided into two types: 

1. Lightweight Layer type. 
Chicken type is called the white layer. This lightweight layer has a slim body / thin-tiny / small, eyes shining. Its fur is pure white and red berjengger. This chicken comes from the pure strain of white Leghorn. Chicken strain is difficult to find, but light commercial laying hens are sold in Indonesia with different names. Each layer Breeding in Indonesia must have laying hens and sell the light (white layer) of this commercial. Chicken is capable of laying over 260 eggs per year production hen house. As layer, this is a special type of chicken to lay eggs just so that all her abilities aimed at laying ability, because the meat just a little. This light-sensitive layer terhadapa hot weather and noise, and the chicken is easily startled and shocked when this chicken production has rapidly decreased, so also when overheated. 
2. Type Layer Medium. 
Chicken body weight is quite heavy. Despite that, the weight is still on the light weight of laying hens and broiler chickens. Therefore, the chicken is called a medium type laying hens. Chicken body is not skinny, but also do not look fat. Eggs were quite a lot and also can generate a lot of meat. Chicken is also called the dual-purpose type chickens. Because the color is brown, the chicken is called a brown laying hens generally have a brown coat color as well. The market people say that brown eggs are preferable to white eggs, judging from the color of his skin is more interesting than white chocolate, but in terms of nutrition and taste relatively the same. One thing that differs is the market price, the price of brown eggs more expensive than white eggs. This is because the heavier brown eggs than white eggs and brown eggs produce fewer eggs than white. In addition, meat from laying hens more medium will be sold as broilers with good taste.
