This article will be discussed about one of the best and most common breeds of Kurros - Cross Loman Brown. Below can be familiar with information about its advantages, as well as the conditions of detention and proper nutrition of chickens and adult chickens.

Historical reference

Breed chickens Loman Brown were brought by Germanic breeders, namely the company Lohmann Tierzucht GmbH. As a result of crossing 4 crossing hybrids, chickens of meat-egg directions appeared. Founders of this breed - Rhode Island and Plymutch.

Representatives Loman Brown exceed their predecessors in all directions. Date of final formation of the breed - 1970.

Description and distinguishing features

This breed has several different representatives that differ in color (brown or white). On productivity, they almost do not differ. However, the best is considered broken brown, which is less demanding of the content.

Appearance

Character

Birds are very active and movable, so they almost do not suffer obesity. They practically do not react to stressful situations, therefore stresses are not reflected on their productivity. And the chickens and roosters are distinguished by a calm character, which allows them to get along with other feathers.

Important! The body of a navel indicates its age. A young chicken looks slim, and sagging belly and wide hips are characteristic of the old bird.

Conflicts are possible only when the birds are not enough space.

Pros and cons

• Among the benefits of the breed can be called such:
• early ripening and egg layout (5-6 months);
• high egg stage;
• almost 100% of the survival rate of young;
• large eggs;
• unpretentious care;
• good acclimatization;
• tasty meat.

• But the birds have some drawbacks:
• decreased egg production in 80 weeks;
• productive qualities are transmitted only by the breeding way. In reproduction, only some "pluses" are preserved naturally. Therefore, you need a constant purchase of young from incubators.

Loman Brauna is unpretentious in content. But so that the return is one hundred percent, you need to follow some rules.

Poultry house

The chicken coop must comply with such requirements:

• it is necessary enough space (no more than 4-5 chickens on 1 m²), otherwise the close will affect their productivity;
• the temperature should be within +15 ... + 18 ° C, and humidity is 60-70%. To winter birds do not murgri, the poultry must be inspired. Unacceptable the presence of drafts;
• the floor can be displayed with a litter of straw or sawdust, but you need to follow so that it is dry and loose. The same litter is suitable for nests;
• so that the egg production is high, the light day should be at least 16 hours. Zima need to use lamps for highlighting;
• the chicken cameras are needed sockets and pancakes. The thrust (diameter of about 40 mm) is placed at an altitude of about 80 cm, and the nest is 60 cm. Nest is needed spacious, their number is not less than 1 on 4 chicken.

Care

Loman Brownam needs standard care.

Did you know? Chickens do not carry in the dark, they will wait for the morning or the inclusion of artificial lighting. And to teach them to rush in one place, an egg or his lingerie is placed in the nest.

Cuttle courtyard

Chickens are movable creatures, so they need a place for walking. It is necessary that the chickens do not burn, and this has not reduced productivity. In summer, birds can find additional food in the form of insects, worms and greens.

To the courtyard there are some requirements:

• the size of the walking should not be less than ½ poultry house;
• better, if on the sides and on top it will be fenced with a grid. Height - 1.5-1.7 m;
• for the free outdoor of the bird from the chicken coop on the walk, you need to make a 40 × 40 cm lazz;
• drinkers and trays with food are desirable to be installed under the shelter;
• need an ash bath;
• well, if the courtyard has a grazing corner with grass. If it is difficult, you can raise the lattice feeders of the V-shaped for greens.

Feeders and drinkers

If the bird is most of the time on the walking, then there you need to place feeders and drinkers. In the room they are placed if the chickens are limited walking (for example, in winter).

Feeders need to pay special attention:

• its size should be such that 1 chicken accounted for at least 7 cm;
• approximate dimensions on 20 chickens - 110 × 25 × 12 cm;
• the design should prevent the varnosum of feed, you can close the grid with large cells from above (for free access to food);
• metal containers are suitable for wet feed, and for dry - wooden;
• the trough must be at the level of the back of the chicken;
• for chalk, shells and sand are used flat containers.

On the poultry farms are used special drinkers. At home, you can use any containers. There are a good option with metal drinkers in the form of a horror and with fittings on the sides (under the flow water).

Seasonal molting and break in egg production

The molting of the chickens are transferred normally, but the egg production is stopped for 1-2 months. This is mainly due to October to December. At this time, birds worsen appetite, and they lose weight. To the molting end faster, in the diet, you need to introduce vitamin and mineral additives, as well as fish oil.

When the chickens are pollinated, the egg production is spontaneously restored.

Planned stadium replacement

As mentioned before, one of the shortcomings of this breed is a decrease in productivity after 20 months. On the chickens, the chickens are fed premixes, which causes the maximum egg production, but also a quick wear of birds (1 year). At home chickens contain longer.

After a year and a half, it is desirable to replace the herd, as in the future the number of eggs decreases, and the taste quality of meat is lost. The old bird is allowed to slaughter and acquire young nurses.

A new herd is populated in a well-fastened and disinfected chicken cookebed. Walls are processed by lime and other disinfectants.

Important! If the replacement of the chickens is planned through the chickens, they need to be purchased 4 months before slaughter of old nurses, so that there is no interruption in obtaining eggs and there is time to prepare the premises.

Feeding

To maintain high productivity for chickens, not only conditions of detention, but also the right and balanced diet are important.

Chickens

The first days of chicks are fed:

• small croups;
• boiled eggs;
• gradually introduce cottage cheese and crushed greens.

For 9-10 days, chickens begin to give:

• starting feed;
• vitamin and mineral additives.

Gradually, the starting feed is replaced by usual, as well as in the diet are introduced:

• corn flour;
• roots;
• greens.

Did you know? Loman Brown has half chicken in the color of the fluff: yellow - rooster, and a dark-red chicken.

They sing young only for warm water (+38 ... + 41 ° C). It is useful to give a chamomile decoction or a weak solution of manganese. In the first days of the chickens need to make a "baytrim".

Adults

Most of the poultry farms prefer to feed the lack of factory mixtures. For adult chickens, growth and finishing feed are used, which, together with wipers and germinated wheat, should be the main part of the power. The grain is given only drill, because one-piece is digested and digested for a long time (up to 6 hours).

Corn is considered the best grain crop, barley is useful, sometimes you can give millet.

In addition to the main diet, you need to give:

• in the summer, greens, and in winter - chopped hay or herbal granules;
• grid vegetables (carrots, swallow, boiled potatoes) can be added to the mixtures;
• dairy products (cottage cheese and serum);
• egg shell, chalk or shells, as well as bone flour;
• cabbage and beet leaves, greenery of legumes;
• fish waste or fish flour;
• pumpkin seeds and yeast.

In the main ration of chickens consists of 3 feedings:

• 1-2 hours after awakening, grain mixes or feed are given;
• about 15 hours of birds feed with wet mixers and compositions of vegetables, greenery, etc.;
• evening feeding mainly consists of grain or feed.

From how the owner takes care of his pets, will depend on their return. Therefore, you need to create the most comfortable conditions of detention and diverse nutrition. And despite some disadvantages, Loman Brown will fully pay off the costs of their provision of providing the owner in the eggs and delicious meat.

Find a poultry farm or private farm, where Brown's chickens were not crude, difficult. Such popularity is due to the excellent indicators of their productivity, as well as the unpretentiousness of birds to the content and habitat.

The breed of CLC Loman Brown has already appeared for about 50 years. It is bred by breeders in 1970 in the German farm Lomann Tirszukht. It is a hybrid or cross. It was removed by crossing 4 breed hybrids. This affected the reproductive function: to obtain chickens of the "pure" species in particular. Chickens Loman Brown belong to the industrial direction.

Divide two varieties of this cross:

Main characteristics

The breed of chicken Loman Brown is characteristic of the following indicators:

Pluses and minuses of breed

Those breeders who are going to raise the chicken breed Loman Brown is definitely interested in their advantages and negative sides.

Among the advantages can be allocated:

There are rocks and some minuses. Among them:

• egg-laying intensity - approximately after 80 weeks the total number of sinted eggs is reduced. After this period, keep the chicken is unprofitable;
• the method of reproduction - the chicken of this breed does not multiply in a natural way. To bring new chickens to buy purchased eggs and lay them out into an incubator.

Growing and profitability costs

Loman Brown is famous for high egg stage and at this time is probably one of the most favorable breeds in this indicator. To calculate the cost of its content, you need to know how much feed is used at different ages. Adult birds consume about 100 g of feed per day. Until the first socks, about 19 weeks pass, that is, over all this time, one chicken will eat about 6.5 kg of feed. For the content of one bird from 20 to 68, about 40 kg of feed will be required.

Prices for an ososcope for egg diagnosis

Breeders note high chickens survival. At the growing stage, survival ranges from 96 to 98%. The inclusion in the incubator is located in the area of \u200b\u200b82%. If we talk about the live weight, then the chicken is about 2-2.2 kg, and the roosters have 3-3.3 kg. For 1 year from 1, the chicken receive an average of 310-320 eggs in a mass of about 65 g. It turns out that about 120 g of feed is consumed on average.

Currently, Loman Brown is rightfully occupied by the first position among chicken breeds on productivity due to a fairly high meat outlet, as well as high egg production.

Care and content

The feathered of this breed is quite unpretentious, but to preserve high productivity, it is necessary to adhere to the recommendations for care, content, feeding.

Place for content

Cross can be kept both in the poultry house and in the cells from the grid. If the chicken content is planned in the poultry house, then it is important to furnish it correctly. Paul ripped straw or soft sawdust. It is necessary to make there pesters, nests, feeders, drinkers. Chicken petrolers should be about 40 cm wide. Feedbacks are better to make a rectangular shape. They install a grid with large holes on top. They are made with the goal so that the chicken can sleep beak and eat, but could not climb into the feeder and scatter food. It is very important to follow the purity of the poultry house and feeders.

Lighting and temperature

In the chicken, it is important to maintain the temperature within 17 degrees. Humidity is important to keep at 50-70%. If the air is dry or very wet, it will not affect performance.

In addition, bad air and unnecessary drafts are poorly affected. It is important to air the poultry every day. The best option will be a forced ventilation system. But most often you can solve the problem with the windows with the flaps that open. In the cold time it is important to provide additional heating. You can warm the chicken coop from the outside, and you can warm inside. For this window, the windows are driven by a film that maintains heat, and the floor is insulated with peat or straw.

Feeding

If you want to achieve high egg production, then you should carefully follow the diet of birds. It is a balanced feed that will ensure the normal development of young, as well as the high productivity of adults.

1. CCL Loman Brown ranks with eggs, which is why proteins and important mistakes should be contained in their feed. Let them chalk, bone or gravel flour. They will help make egg shells more durable, will contribute to high egg noise.

   

2. The very first feeding is produced in the morning, but not immediately after the awakening of the birds. The second feeding is produced during the day, and the last can be made in the evening before bedtime.
3. It is not necessary to give chicken whole grains. It is better to choose a special commobor for birds.

   

4. Adding to the stern gives a germinated wheat. It will help birds faster to digest food. You can also include corn, millet or barley.

   

5. Since the chicses are required vitamins, it is worth taking care of their sufficient quantities. Carrot, rope, fodder buoy, will be suitable as additives. You can also add pumpkin or cabbage to the feed.

   

6. In the warmth, the bird requires greens. For individuals who have access to green grass, this problem is irrelevant. But if you contain chickens in cells, then you need to take care of the green stern.

   

7. The total amount of dry animal feed, emitted by chicken in the day, is at the level of 100 g.
8. Do not overflow chickens. This is especially true of birds that are contained in cells and move little. This leads to an increase in adipose tissue.

   

Detailed day of the day

So that the chicken felt well, and also did not hurt and please you with their performance, it is important to observe the mode of the day recommended for chickens.

Reproduction

Since Loman Brown is essentially a cross, then it will not work as a natural way to achieve a "clean" offspring. For breeding or take an egg from industrial production to incubation, or buy daily chickens from manufacturers.



Incubation

Only artificial incubation is suitable for the removal of good individuals. To achieve favorable conditions in the home environment is not easy. Experienced farmers advise not to engage at home incubation.



But if you still decided to this, follow the following recommendations:




Growing chickens

In order for the future adult person to have all the characteristics of the breed and high performance, it is necessary to properly care for them in the first weeks of life. It is important to comply with the following recommendations:

1. Temperature. The first day of chickens should be contained at a temperature of 35-36 degrees. Then it is lowered by 2 degrees every 2 days. The second week passes at a temperature of 27-29 degrees. Then every week the average temperature is lowered by 2 degrees per week. By the sixth week, chickens should be contained at a temperature of 18-20 degrees.

   

2. Lighting. The first few days of chickens are kept with round-the-clock artificial lighting. Then build the following cycle: 4 hours of light and 2 hours of darkness. Starting from 10 days, chickens are transferred to normal lighting mode.

   

3. Feeding. The first 14 days of young people are contained on quarantine. The bulk of the diet is the starting feed. At this time, selenium is recommended in drinking water. Then in the feed begin to introduce cereals, gradually replacing the starting feed on the usual one. Among the necessary chickens of products: green feed, various root cornproofs, corn flour. It is important to monitor trace elements and vitamins in the diet.

   

4. Other conditions. In the first 5 days prevention for chickens is carried out. They are given special preparations, among them Baytril and Encoxyl. In 120 days they make beak recirculation. This is the procedure for cutting off part of the beak, which prevents bird aggression. Otherwise, they can very much to peck other birds, making serious harm.

   

Possible troubleshooting problems

One of the most common problems in the cultivation is the decrease in the egg production of the chicken. Usually, peak falls at age 150-180 days. After this period, the chicken shows maximum productivity within 2-3 months.



Then there is a gradual decline. If a chicken is more than a year, then in the period of seasonal molting the norm is considered to reduce productivity up to 40-50%. After molting, the egg production will increase, but there will be no former peak indicators. With normal development, productivity recovery at the level of 80% of the first year of life. That is, molting and aging have a great influence on the productivity of chicken.



Among other reasons for the decline of egg production allocate:

• bad feeding;
• bad conditions of detention;
• diseases;
• stress that may occur when changing the habitat or changing feed.

In some cases, even coarse treatment may cause reducing productivity.

Diseases

The chicken of breed Loman Brown is quite resistant to diseases. Despite this, they still can get sick.

Chickens are the most popular poultry, which are usually bred in small socodes, as well as for industrial purposes. Someone breeds crosses of meat direction, someone prefers to grow chickens, but still the most popular chickens of the measoy destination are most popular.

This article will be told about Loman Brown - about one of the best among the meat breeds of chickens.

The breed of CCL Loman Brown was led by German breeders from Lomann Tirszukht. Works on the removal of the new breed of crosses began in the middle of the last century. The removal of new cross-country crossings was carried out during a couple of decades, females of the Rhode Island and Roosters of Plymutoki were taken as the basis.

The basis of the first generation birds were taken, which then multiplied with each other. Usually crossed white females and non-ferrous males, resulting in cross-hungry meat and egg productivity.

In 1987, the breed Loman Brown was registered in Germany and began to gain popularity among farmers of this country, and with the time of chickens of this breed began to grow in other countries.

Since these birds are crossies, therefore, in a small farm, it is impossible to grow a full offspring. And in the context of large farms, parental forms crossed in Loman Brownov. To breed this cross in small socodes, it is recommended to buy eggs from an incubator or chickens at the age of 2-3 months.

The initial "parents" for the line Loman Brown was taken descendants of 4 main lines, so the varieties of Loman Brown meet more than it could be expected. So do not worry if the color of the plumage in the purchased young one is not white or purely brown - it can be one of the cross crosses. Especially often differ in the color of the roosters of this breed.

The main representatives of the males of this breed are two, they distinguish them on the color of the roosters.

1. In males of the first type, a bright brown plumage with a golden tint, according to the breed standard, black spots is allowed.
2. And the roosters of the second species are purely white, and the chickens of this species are painting the plumage - brown with a reddish tint. Moreover, newborn chickens in daily age are already easily distinguished by sexual signs.

External signs of the breed:

• The body of representatives of this breed is strong, perfectly formed, the wings are well developed.
• Spin - horizontal, chest and belly - wide.
• Usually the maximum weight of the chicken and cocks are gaining to one and a half years, at this age the maximum mass of females - up to 2 kilograms, and in males - 3 kg.
• The body is put in birds of this breed vertically.
• The head is small, comb - medium size, red, like earrings.
• Also for the birds of this breed is characterized by a dense plumage, high limbs.

The mass of eggs is about 63 g, the shell is strong.

Usually the individuals of the breed of Loman Brown are not prone to obesity, unpretentious to content and nutrition, sociable, so they can be kept in a poultry house with other poultry.

Due to its calmly accurate character of the chicken of this breed, they quickly get used to new conditions and masters, roosters are not inclined to aggression.

This breed has many advantages about which you should know:

• young is distinguished by high rapidness - already in 4.5 months of chickens are gaining up to 2/3 of their weight, and females demolish the first eggs. The maximum productivity of navels of broken is reached by half;
• the survival of young people is very high - up to 97-98%;
• from one non-shell during the period of active productivity, about 300 eggs are obtained;
• containing non-bias of this breed is extremely profitable - compared with the nurses of other dog breeds, Loman Brown is distinguished by high productivity at significantly lower nutrition costs;
• these crossings are distinguished by high endurance and unpretentiousness;
• in the incubator eggs, crosses differ in high chickens - 81-82%.

But in the breeding of crossbows of this breed, the following flaws should be taken into account:

• the high productivity of the navels of this species is different for 2-2.5 months, in the future their egg production is sharply reduced, so the further content of the females becomes unprofitable, and the owners have to fully update the nurses;
• at home, it is impossible to resume the livestock, so you have to regularly buy crosses or chickens in specialized farms.

Since these birds are unpretentious, to contain them simply not only on large poultry farms, but also in small farms. These crosses are distinguished by high resistance even to harsh climatic conditions, so non-bulls do not reduce productivity even in Siberia and in the Urals.

Therefore, despite its activity, the nurses feel great in chicken coop with regular walking, with outdoor content or in cells.

Since these chickens exist in personal farms and on large poultry farms, the poultry products will be able to choose the most optimal of them for themselves.

If chickens of this breed will contain in chicken copies with a walking, then you should pre-build a poultry house, equip it with pesals, drinking and feeders. Sarahs are often used to keep poultry, only you need to ensure that there are no cracks in such rooms in the walls so that the chicken cameras do not "walked" the drafts. The poultry should be well ventilated, so the vents are provided.

Walking for chickens of this breed is envisaged at the rate of 1 m2 by 3 individuals. The height of the fence should be at least 1.3 m. On the territory of the fenced walking, the grass should be sown on domestic bird feed: dill, clover, etc.

Feeders and drinkers must correspond to the number of zoom. If you do not create nurses of breed Loman Brown comfortable conditions for living, then their performance will start quickly.

On large poultry farms, the chickens in the cells are carried out by the procedure of partial cut-off of the beak. If this is not done on time (at the age of about 3 months), then in general, peace-loving chickens become aggressive, they smear the demolished eggs, they can unnecessary pulling out their feet. Also, experts note that the progress procedure is carried out in a timely manner.

Correct Curly Care Loman Brown

Proper nursing care broods Loman Brown includes not only the creation of comfortable conditions for living this poultry. It is necessary to organize the correct diet of the feeding of these individuals, to ensure that there are no more food in the feeders, than the chicken can eat at a time.

In drips, water should always be clean, so it usually changes at least once a day. And in winter, the water change more often so that its temperature is maintained in the 15 ° C.

Also during the winter period, you need to keep track of the air temperature - it should be kept in the area of \u200b\u200b5-7⸰s, then the non-masters of this breed will not decrease the egg production and in winter. To do this, the chicken coop put oil heating batteries that should be installed so that the birds cannot burn them about them.

Also during the autumn-winter period, it is necessary to install the daylight lamps in the chicken coop to extend the day day until 13-15 hours. It is necessary that non-drying and cold time continue to ride in the usual mode.

In the diet of feeding this poultry, you need to include products containing:

• proteins;
• carbohydrates;
• mineral additives;
• necessary vitamins.

It is especially important to introduce substances containing calcium into the diet, so that the shell of the eggs is strong and durable. For this, the daily diet must be present chalk, bone flour and gravel.

And when the content of such individuals in the cells, it is necessary to strictly dose the daily amount of feed so that the chickens do not gain excess weight. In this case, the daily amount of feed must be at no more than 115. Also, with cellular content, it is necessary to regularly give the birds with green feed so that they receive a sufficient number of vitamins along with greens.

The main purpose of the content of chickens is to increase to the maximum level of their egg production. At the same time, each owner wishes to have a bird, productive and in the meat direction.

Golden middle in this pursuit of steel chickens of the breed Loman Brown. For their dilution, hybrids obtained by intrabreed crossing are used, the so-called cross.

Crosses - hybrids of breeds and poultry lines obtained as a result of complex genetic and breeding rules in laboratory and industrial conditions.

Compared to purebred individuals, crosses are more enduring, life behaience and productive. The breed is attractive for both industrial and private breeding.

Description of breed

Breeding in Germany. The goal, which was put in front of genetics: to get a cross, the high productivity of which will depend a little on the conditions of detention. For the receipt of Loman Brown, Rodayland was taken. The individuals of the first generation were crossed. In the father's line, the hybrids had a brown color with black feathers on the tips of the wings and the tail. They are the carriers of the color gene.

Maternal hybrids had a white plumage. When crossing, there were autosacks in the color of the fluff of chickens. A distinctive feature of chickens: already in daily age you can distinguish the chicken from the roosters. The first have fawn color, and the second white.

Crosses Loman Brown have a red-brown plumage sometimes with dark rugs on the wings and tail, sometimes with a white gap at the bottom of the neck. Birds are not frightened. Due to the fact that the main direction of breeding is broken by the Eggs, the individuals of this breed are not gaining a lot of weight. Roosters grow to 3.5 kg, females - up to 2 kg.

Breed Features Loman Brown

Loman Brown is a highly profitable breed at the ratio of costs on the contents and income from eggs. The main advantages and features are as follows:

• High egg stage. Eggs are large, with a browning shell. In a year with moderate feeding, a non-drying can carry up to 320 eggs. Eggs are large - up to 65. Although it should be remembered that at the very beginning of the egg laying they are much smaller.
• Chickness of chicks is very high (up to 98%).
• One of the important features of Crosses Loman Brown is unpretentiousness of the content. They easily adapt to new conditions and even climate. They can be successfully grown in cells.
• Rag growth period - 161 days.
• Coolness occurs at the age of 135 days.
• They begin to carry early (at the age of four weeks) and reaches the maximum of masonry aged 160-180 days.
• This cross is distinguished by good offspring.

Disadvantages of breed

However, there are deficiencies that future owners should know:

• After 80 weeks of the egg laying, the productivity of non-shells is rapidly reduced. At this age it is better to send a bird to the bottom.
• The best quality of the breed can be reproduced only during breeding. In private economy, cross are not bred. Parental qualities are not indulging in a natural way. You can update the farm by only buying chickens and eggs on a specialized station or farm.

Nuclear feeding

As mentioned above, the chickens of the breed Loman Brown are unpretentious in care, they are easily adapted to climatic conditions. Therefore, the most important condition of the content is the right feed. Just acquired chickens for two weeks plant on quarantine and feed the starting diet, which can be purchased in a veterinary pharmacy or pet store.

As they grove, they change the feed from the start-old on the growth, gradually introducing crushed grain into the diet (one-piece long digested in the stomach). In no case should not feed the birds with alone premixes. They can get sick and even die. With suspected diarrhea instead of water, birds give rice decoction. When feeding the feeder, it is necessary to count on 114 g per day per chicken. This is not much, compared to other rocks.

Ideal food and for young people, and for adults - corn croup. Be sure to add chopped vegetables or fruits into the diet. At the pasture, the chickens themselves graze. But if they are contained in the grid, you should take care of the presence in the diet of the greenery.

Bird care

Chickens are well grown and in walking, and in cells. However, it is necessary to take care of creating optimal conditions if you plan to get a maximum return from your farm.

If birds live in cells, then those should be spacious enough so that the chickens can calmly move around them. If the cross will be grown in half-willed conditions, you need to take care of the arrangement of the piping and nests. Birds are eggs, therefore nests should be enough. Keeping the chicken coop is clean to prevent the development of pathogenic microorganisms that poorly affect the health of chickens.

Chicken coop microclimate and proper mode

Although Nonavi Loman Brown feels well in ordinary rustic conditions, it is still desirable to provide them with microclumatic conditions that will contribute to maximum inconsistency. It is important to create a right microclimate in the chicken. The optimal temperature is from 16 to 18 degrees Celsius. Relative humidity - from 40 to 70 percent. Both wet and dry air destructively affects the health of the bird.

If additional heating is not provided, the chicken coop must be insulated. With a minimum of the cost of the winter, the windows are walked by a special film, and the floor is in peat and hay. There should be no drafts in the smokeshief. Well, of course, you should take care of lighting if you want to collect eggs to the maximum.

No matter how strange it sounds, but for chickens, especially eggs, the correct day of the day is important. Early in the morning, birds are released from the chicken coop or include light in the cell, but do not feed. About three hours are organized. Breakfast should not be delayed more than 40 minutes. After that, the feeders are clean, ejected feed remains to prevent the development of pathogenic bacteria. Birds lunch at three o'clock in the afternoon. Food should be so much that the chickens roared it about an hour and a half. After 9 o'clock in the evening, the bird drive into the chicken coop, and the lights are quenched in the cells.

On the European poultry market, one of the leading seats on sales occupies the breed of Clavy Loman Brown. On the territory of Russia, it is more likely to meet the subspecies of the bird "Classic", it is characterized by higher productivity on the nearest eggs and sufficient meaturacy. But little to have a high-quality tribe, to achieve a good result, the poultry farms need to know the description of the species, the principle of its content and breeding.

Specific traits

Farmers from different countries became known about non-bits in 1987, 10 years after the breaking of the breed Loman Brown. The main goal of German breeders was obtaining a type of bird with a high indicator of egg production, regardless of climatic conditions. The variety of chickens went through the crossing of the Rhode Island and Plymutch. The paper used the varieties of exceptionally first generation. White chickens and multi-colored roosters took part in the selection.

Kura Loman Brown belongs to the bird's cross class, from their eggs at home it is impossible to remove a full-fledged young. The poet for the purpose of breeding the breed it is necessary to use only incubator eggs or already grown chickens.

According to the photo and the description, it is possible to determine that this breed of chickens has average mass indicators. By 1.5 years, the bird is characterized by such values:

• females - 2 kg;
• males - 3 kg.

Nuts Loman Brown have a proportional physique, a small scallicle of a red shade and rounded earrings. They have thick dense plumage, medium sizes of wings, long paws and a well-developed tail part. As for color, the color may be different, depending on the type of cross.

Cross industrial nurseries Loman Brown was removed in Germany through the efforts of Lohmann Tierzucht GmbH (Lomann Tirszukht) and refers to the meat-egg type of chickens

In addition to the characteristics of the chickens, Brown includes the following parameters:

• large eggs 63-65 gr. with white or brown color and durable shell;
• increased chickens viability indicator - up to 98% are viable;
• outoexexicity of distant parental lines and hybrids.

Color Column Loman Brown

Parentine breeds of crossbars and crossing technology The company does not reveal so far, but today in its assortment is no less than 5 types of ovarine crossies

Breed chickens Loman Brown preferably have a brown color, but it only concerns red birds that are bred in the territory of the Russian Federation. In addition to this species, there are other crosses:

Silver - White chicken with small gray splashes, which carries brown eggs.

White - Small chickens and roosters with clean white color as in the photo, Loman Brown of this species has a small mass and high degree of productivity.
