“…The success of a laying hens farm is largely determined by marketing (Watnick, 2016;Hsu, 2011;Mohammed et al, 2013;Wilson and Wong, 2003). The main production of laying hens is eggs, while meat is a by-product in the form of rejected chickens (Memon et al, 2015;Swiatkiewicz et al, 2010). Rejected chickens are old chickens aged about 100 weeks and their production is not economically profitable (Hendrik, 2011); (Świaţkiewicz et al, 2010); (Hassan et al, 2018).…”
