How to get accurate results
- Laying rate is the share of hens that lay each day. Count eggs for a week and divide by hens × 7.
- Layers usually eat around 110–130 g of feed a day. Weigh what you actually give.
- Other costs include labour, vaccines, drugs, lighting, water and transport to market.
- A tray is 30 eggs.
