çiftletilmesi
Çiftletilmesi, also known as "layering" in English, is a process used in poultry farming to increase the number of eggs produced by a hen. This technique involves removing the hen's ovaries, which naturally stop producing eggs after a certain period. By doing so, the hen's body continues to produce eggs indefinitely, as long as it is provided with the necessary nutrients and care. The process typically involves surgical removal of the ovaries, followed by regular injections of hormones to stimulate egg production. This method allows farmers to produce a consistent supply of eggs from a single hen, which can be economically beneficial. However, it is important to note that çiftletilmesi is a controversial practice due to ethical concerns regarding animal welfare and the potential for the hens to suffer from health issues as a result of the constant egg production. As such, the use of this technique varies widely depending on regional regulations and cultural attitudes towards animal farming.
