1. Housing Preparation​

• ​Facility Inspection & Maintenance​
  • Thoroughly check and repair the ​grow-out house​ (or main layer house) to ensure:
    ✓ Functional ventilation, lighting, and manure removal systems
    ✓ Secure cage structures (no sharp edges or loose wires)
  • For ​winter transfers: Install supplemental heating if temperatures fall below 18°C (64°F)

​2. Flock Readiness Assessment​

• ​Weight & Physical Checks​
  • Confirm pullets meet ​target body weight​ (varies by breed, e.g., Hy-Line Brown: 1.5–1.8 kg at 16–18 weeks)
  • Ensure birds can comfortably access ​nipple drinkers​ (adjust height if needed)
• ​Timing Optimization​
  • ​Winter: Transfer at midday (10 AM–2 PM) for warmth & natural light
  • ​Summer: Transfer at dusk to reduce heat stress (ideal: 25–28°C/77–82°F)

​3. Stress & Health Management​

• ​Anti-Stress Protocol​ (3–5 days pre-transfer)
  • Add ​vitamin C (200g/ton feed)​​ or ​electrolytes​ to drinking water
  • Prevent ​mycoplasma outbreaks​ post-stress with doxycycline (if endemic)
• ​Deworming Schedule​ Parasite TypeTreatmentTimingAdjuvantTapewormsLevamisole (pre-mix)Night before transferFish oil (5ml/kg feed)Coccidia​Robenidine + intestinal meds​2 days pre/post transferVitamin A/D3 water

​4. Post-Transfer Adaptation​

• ​3–5 Day Adjustment Period​
  • Maintain ​16-hour light cycles​ to stabilize behavior
  • Gradually transition to layer feed (7-day mix with grower ration)
  • ​Vaccination delay: Wait until flock shows normal activity/feed intake
• ​Cage Design Advantages​ (Our layer cage Systems)

​5. Equipment Durability Assurance​

• ​Galvanization Quality​
  • ​150+ hours salt spray test​ (vs. 90-hour national standard)
  • ​Q235 steel framework:
    ✓ 12% higher elasticity → ​​≤1% broken eggs​
    ✓ 3x rust resistance vs. conventional cages
• ​Structural Integrity​
  • Reinforced weld points withstand ​**≥50kg/sq.cm load**​
  • 10-year lifespan guarantee (tropical climate tested)
