Abstract
- The article discusses the aspects to consider in the nutrition of laying hens to improve its laying cycle. Topics mentioned include the need to hit bodyweight targets for birds to achieve the physiological development required to attain the required quality of layer at the onset of lay, the importance for the hens' nutrition to be adapted to a changing market for egg size, and management of the feeding programme based on physiological development of the hens.
