How many pounds is the maximum size of a Rutin chicken

1.

How long does it take for a Rutin chicken to start laying eggs?

1. Rutin chicks start laying eggs after about 50 days of breeding. Rutin chickens breed from June to August and nest in plains, low hills, and mountains at an altitude of about 2,000 meters. Nests are primarily placed in natural hollows in the ground. Each clutch lays 4-8 eggs, 22.9-27.7×17.3-20.4 mm in size. The eggs are pale olive-brown or yellowish, and some have fine, sparse dark spots. They lay upwards of 300 eggs per year in captivity, with an incubation period of 16 days.

2. For artificially raised Rutin chickens, the brooding temperature is 35°C at 1 day, drops to 29°C at 2 weeks of age, and then drops to room temperature after 4-5 weeks. The feed particles should be small enough, and green feeds such as vegetables should be chopped very well. The cage floor should be kept dry, and the mesh around it should be less than 1.9 cm, preventing escape, sparrows, and others from flying into the cage to feed.
