Technical Introduction
Successful pullet development determines the foundation for long-term laying performance and production stability. Bodyweight control, flock uniformity and proper preparation before transfer strongly influence peak production and egg size progression. This session focuses on key management practices during rearing and the transition to lay that allow producers to align pullet quality with genetic potential under commercial Asian production conditions.
