What are the differences between broilers and layers and in their management?
Broilers have fast growth rates, therefore they need protein rich food with sufficient fat and vitamin A and k are provided in larger quantities. They do not require much space and lighting. On the other hand, Layers need less proteins and fats in their food and sufficient nutrients, minerals and vitamins have to be provided. They need enough space and lighting.
