14 Weeks Novogen Pullets for Sale Highlights

  • Pullets Ready for Laying: Pullets are young female chickens that are nearing the age of laying eggs. Typically, they begin to lay around 18-22 weeks of age, depending on breed and care.
  • Breed Considerations: Different chicken breeds have varying egg-laying capacities, egg colors, and temperaments. Some breeds are known for high production, while others are favored for dual-purpose meat and egg qualities.
  • Nutritional Needs: As pullets mature, their dietary needs change. They require a balanced feed formulated for growing layers, providing essential protein, calcium, and other nutrients for healthy development and future egg production.
  • Housing and Environment: Adequate housing with roosting space, nesting boxes, and protection from predators is crucial for pullets. Maintaining a clean environment and appropriate temperature helps prevent stress and disease.
  • Seasonal Laying Patterns: While many modern breeds lay year-round, egg production can naturally decrease during shorter daylight hours in winter. Providing supplemental light can help maintain consistent laying.
  • Transition to Laying Feed: Around 16-18 weeks, it's advisable to transition pullets to a layer feed. This feed has a higher calcium content, which is vital for forming strong eggshells.
