For every laying hen that is hatched, approximately one male counterpart also hatches. However, as roosters do not produce eggs, they are typically culled, or euthanized, at hatch. However, the culling of these day-old male chicks raises ethical concerns.
When enteritis strikes, the challenge is identifying the exact cause. In February 2023, Huvepharma’s research and development personnel received a call about enteritis symptoms in two commercial antibiotic-free turkey houses. A team went out to conduct a thorough field investigation to determine precisely what was going on with the flocks.
In the last 2 decades, strides in poultry nutrition helped build profitability for poultry producers in the US and around the world. Average US feed-conversion rates (FCR) have improved by 23 points (0.23) since 2000, according to Michael Kidd, PhD, professor in the Department of Poultry Science at the University of Arkansas.
Kansas State University research has offered a glimpse into the potential of niacin supplementation in broiler diets — but questions remain about the exact benefits producers might expect from such a move.
Lighting has emerged as one of the most powerful tools to manage and optimize layer performance. It profoundly impacts production, health and overall welfare.

A novel probiotic has been developed as a direct-fed microbial in both poultry and swine feed to improve gut health and weight-gain efficiency, according to the University of Arkansas.
University of Georgia researchers, led by Maricarmen Garcia, PhD, have developed a new genotyping assay for analyzing clinical samples of infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV). Identifying the genotype of the outbreak-related virus and determining its genetic relationship to field or vaccine strains is key to diagnosing ILTV.
