Care Requirements:

• Brooding Temperature: For the first few weeks, maintain a brooding temperature of 35°C (95°F), gradually reducing it by 2-3°C each week as the pullets grow.
• Feeding: Start with a high-protein starter feed (20-22%) during the first 6–8 weeks. Transition to a layer feed with adequate calcium once they reach 16-18 weeks, supporting egg production and strong shell formation.
• Watering: Provide fresh, clean water at all times. It’s essential to keep water containers clean to prevent contamination and ensure proper hydration.
• Health Monitoring: Regular vaccination against common poultry diseases (e.g., Marek’s disease, Newcastle disease) and parasite control are essential to maintaining a healthy flock.

Housing Requirements:

• Space and Comfort: These pullets thrive in both cage-free and confined systems, but they perform best with enough space for movement, perching, and dust-bathing.
• Ventilation: Good ventilation is important to maintain air quality and prevent respiratory diseases. Ensure the housing is clean, dry, and well-ventilated.
• Protection: Ensure that the housing is safe from predators and adverse weather conditions, especially when the pullets are young and more vulnerable.

Lifespan and Production Cycle:

• Peak Laying Period: Novogen Brown pullets reach their peak laying performance around 20-24 weeks of age and remain highly productive for the next 18-24 months.
• Lifespan: With proper care, Novogen Brown pullets can live for 4-6 years, although they are typically kept for 2 years for optimal egg production before being replaced.
• Egg-Laying Continuity: These birds lay consistently during their peak period, with a high level of egg production even in less-than-ideal conditions.

Packaging and Transport:

• Carton Specifications: Each carton typically contains 50 day-old pullets, packed securely for safe transport. This ensures minimal stress and injury during shipping.
