Under normal conditions, each chicken requires approximately 110 ml of water per day in winter, around 280 ml in summer, and about 200 ml in spring and autumn. However, this amount can increase significantly when the egg production rate rises. During the peak laying period, it's crucial to ensure a consistent and sufficient supply of clean, fresh water to support the hens' health and productivity.
Chickens typically have three main drinking periods each day: around 8 a.m., 12 p.m., and 6 p.m. These times align with their natural activity cycles, as they are most active during daylight hours. At about 8 a.m., the lights are turned on, signaling the start of the day, and chickens begin to drink. By midday, around 12 p.m., the hens reach their peak egg-laying time. After laying eggs, they often feel thirsty and need to replenish lost fluids. By 6 p.m., the lighting starts to dim, and the hens prepare for rest. It's important that they drink enough water before nightfall to stay hydrated overnight.
If laying hens don’t drink enough water during these key times, it can lead to reduced egg production, dehydration, and overall poor health. Ensuring that water is always available and accessible during these periods helps maintain their well-being and maximizes their performance. Farmers should monitor water intake closely, especially during hot weather or high-production phases, and make adjustments as needed to support optimal flock health.
