"I am Dr. T.K. Roy, speaking on behalf of Expert Village. Apart from the comfortable houses, good food, drinking water, the barns should be dewormed. We should be giving medicines for worms once in every month, particularly during the rainy season when chances of worm infestation is much more, in comparison with other seasons. So, there are good medicines in the market which can be given to individually to each barn once in every month, or when the number of barns are much more, then you give them in a flock treatment method, that is, you give either, mix it the drinking water or you mix it with the feed. And, also, check the barns for lice and mice "issecta" because if you see the indicators from the opposite side then if there are lice or if there is mice, then you can see them in the feather follicles. So, in that case, the eggs production will be much less or egg production will be delayed. So, we'll have to take the proper precautions for treating those barns so that the lice and mice can be removed and the barns can grow and start laying right eggs. Thank you very much."
