EVALUASI HDP DAN FCR AYAM PETELUR PADA UMUR YANG BERBEDA

This study aims to evaluate the effect of differences in the age of laying hens in the layer phase on Hen Day Production (HDP) and the physical quality of eggs. This research is motivated by the importance of productivity and feed conversion in the laying hen farming industry. The research method used was Survei. Observed variables include HDP and FCR. Data were analyzed descriptively by calculating the average. The results showed that FCR tended to increase in chickens aged 80 weeks (2.30 g), followed by chickens aged 50 weeks (2.20 g), 30 weeks (2.02 g), and 40 weeks (1.82 g). It can be concluded that the age of laying hens influences HDP and FCR.
